I’m a Muslim and wondering about the possibility of a second marriage. My current wife works for the government. Do I need to pay her maintenance if I remarry, and what legal implications would I face?

Under Indian law, you can remarry if your first marriage is dissolved through divorce. Your wife’s employment has no bearing on maintenance. You may be liable for maintenance to your first wife depending on various factors like her financial status, the duration of your marriage, and the reason for the separation. Seeking legal advice from a lawyer is crucial to understand your specific situation and potential legal implications.
