My husband and I have been separated for almost two years. I live with my in-laws and our 4-year-old son. We’ve been married for 11 years. He doesn’t visit us, and he only pays for our son’s expenses. He doesn’t provide any financial support for me. What should I do? I need advice.

Based on Indian law, you have grounds for seeking maintenance from your husband under Section 125 of the CrPC. Since you are living with your in-laws and your husband is not providing you financial support, you can file a maintenance application in a family court.
