short by Bhuvnesh Ojha / on Thursday, 13 February, 2025
The Supreme Court on Wednesday ruled that interim maintenance and permanent alimony can be claimed by either of the parties even in a marriage declared void under Hindu Marriage Act (HMA), 1955. "Whether such a relief of permanent alimony can be granted or not always depends on the facts of each case and conduct of the parties," the court stated.
