My husband and I have been married for three years, but we’ve been living apart. I have a young child, and I don’t want to end our marriage. How can I apply for financial support from him?

Under Indian law, you can file for maintenance from your husband under Section 125 of the CrPC. You can approach a Magistrate Court, citing your child’s need and your inability to support yourself and your child. The court may order your husband to provide regular financial support.
