A Karnataka High Court judge has questioned a woman's demand for INR 6 lakh per month in alimony from her ex-husband during divorce proceedings. The judge argued that such an amount was unreasonable, suggesting that if the woman wished to spend that much, she should earn it herself. A video of the court proceedings, which has gone viral, shows the woman's lawyer requesting INR 6,16,300 monthly for her client's expenses, including INR 4-5 lakh for medical treatments and INR 50,000 for personal items. The judge dismissed the demand, emphasising that alimony should not serve as a punishment for the husband, especially when he is already covering their children's education costs. The judge urged the woman's advocate to convey to her that the demand was excessive and unsubstantiated, leading to widespread discussion on social media. HC on Alimony to Wife: Purpose of Domestic Violence Act is to Support Victims, Not Sent People to Jail For Failing to Pay Maintenance, Says Delhi High Court.
