Wife refuses to live in Army quarters and sent maintenance request—what should I do?
Sir, I am serving in the Indian Army. I have requested my wife to come and stay with me in the Army quarters, but she is refusing. Instead, she has sent a letter to my Commanding Officer and AWWA, requesting maintenance. Please advise me on what I should do.
If your wife is refusing to live with you without a valid reason but is demanding maintenance, inform your Commanding Officer and AWWA in writing with all facts. You may also file a petition under Section 9 of the Hindu Marriage Act, asking the court to direct her to live with you. However, if she proves valid reasons, she may still get maintenance. Consult an expert lawyer for the best legal strategy. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
