SC orders ₹25,000 monthly salary deduction for wife, child

The Supreme Court of India ordered a man's employer to deduct ₹25,000 monthly from his salary and transfer it to his estranged wife as maintenance for her and their four-year-old daughter. The bench acted after the husband repeatedly ignored earlier court directions and failed to clear ₹1.38 lakh in arrears, stressing the welfare of the child.
