as long as she doesnot contracts second marriage or has a child
My answer was relevant to Mohammedan law if you want to know in context of other law, what the others have said is right
maintenance can be demanded under sec. 125 CrPC
yes wife can claim maintenance even after divorce under section 125 CrPC
Any person can approach the Magistrate court u/s 125 of Cr PC if the responsible persons are not maintaining them. A divorced husband is liable to maintain the divorced wife.
after divorce there is no liability of husband. if she has child so she can able to apply maintenance for their child, if she was not done second marriage.
As long as the mehar is paid the husband is not bound to pay any maintenance and you should consult a scholar for a Quranic point of view
yes she entitled maintenance till remarriage as supreme court judgement Shahabanu begum supra
