Supreme Court Grants Maintenance To Muslim Women

In this podcast, Kushal speaks with Nikhil Mehra and Arshia Malik about the recent ruling by the two-judge bench of Justices B. V. Nagarathna and Augustine George Masih confirming that Muslim women can claim maintenance from their divorced husbands under Section 125 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC), 1973. The decision emphasises that Section 125 CrPC applies to all women, not just those who are married.
