The Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 (DV Act) grants an unmarried daughter the right to maintenance, regardless of her age or religion, according to a recent ruling by the Allahabad High Court. After reviewing the DV Act's provisions, Justice Jyotsna Sharma concluded that any woman—major or minor—who has experienced abuse in a domestic relationship is eligible for a remedy under the legislation. A plea against a judicial magistrate's ruling compelling a Muslim father to give each of his three daughters Rs 3,000 in interim maintenance was being heard by the court. HC on Maintenance to Woman: 'Highly Qualified and Earning Wife Not Disclosing Her True Income Won't Be Entitled to Maintenance From Husband', Says Delhi High Court While Upholding Family Court Order
