Indian Courts Order Maintenance and Alimony Payments in Family Disputes

Analysed 6 Nov 2026·3 sources analysed·Pimpri, India·Crime
Indian Courts Order Maintenance and Alimony Payments in Family DisputesPreviousNext

Two Indian courts recently issued maintenance and alimony orders in separate family law cases. A Pimpri court directed a government peon to pay Rs 15,000 monthly to his estranged wife and son, plus Rs 25,000 compensation for alleged harassment, following a decade-long legal battle. Meanwhile, the Orissa High Court ordered a man to pay Rs 10 lakh as permanent alimony to his estranged wife, citing doubts about his claimed unemployment and concealed income. Both cases involve disputes over financial support amid ongoing or concluded marital conflicts.
