I am married (14yrs) and having two children. I am B.tech engineer. when my marriage got fix, I had to left my job. after marriage I started tuition classes but that also I had to give up due to suspicious nature of my husband. now as I am completely a non working woman he also don't give me money to spend on my own. I am totally dependent on his mood. every time when he fights with me, I always got in fear of, what if he refused to bring me vegetables or grocery ( however it never happened. he always brought the households and grocery) ) he also threatens me of giving divorce. But due to my situation of my kids studies, I am not able to take divorce. I want to know, is there any provision in law, abiding with which he had to pay me some money regularly for my expenses. as my daughter wants to take tutions , but he is not ready and I don't have money to pay fees. pls tell how I can get some pocket money while living with him without divorce. kindly help

Your husband is legally bound to discharge his obligation towards his wife and childerns.He does not have any right to refuse to discharge his obligation on his mood Nor he can assault even to slap his wife
You have a legal remedy against your husband to dicharge his obligation by filing an applicatiion u/s 125 CrPC. You can also lodge a complaint under Domestic Violence Act.The law is very strict and your husband even could be sent to jail for the acts as mentioned by you in your qery

It is not difficult to get maintenance for you. Have patience and things will be sorted out. If not go to court ,they will get you your desired amount. It will come under Domestic violence. under Maintenance.
