Madhya Pradesh High Court Upholds Increased Maintenance for Wife and Son
The Madhya Pradesh High Court upheld a family court order requiring a husband to pay increased maintenance to his wife and minor son, dating back to their initial claim. The son's maintenance was raised from Rs 3,000 to Rs 9,000 per month, while the wife's amount remained unchanged. The court ruled that delaying enhanced payments would unfairly deprive the wife and child, rejecting the husband's claim that the increase constituted harassment.
