A Hindu woman in India left her husband and children, seeking legal support from the court. She was awarded a monthly allowance for her maintenance. After a year or two, she approached the court again, asking for an increase in her maintenance. The court granted her request. Does she still hold the legal status of a wife to her husband? Could you shed light on this legal matter?

Yes, the woman still holds the legal status of a wife to her husband despite seeking and receiving maintenance. Even though she has left the marital home, a Hindu marriage is considered indissoluble unless dissolved through legal means like divorce or annulment.
