Legal Question in Family Law in India

After excessive harassement of dowry and cruelty from my in-laws as well as husband I filed a Dowry harrasement case against my in-laws and husband upon which my husband applied for an anticipatory bail.

I am also going to file a maintenance case and divorce case. Somebody is advising me that I should not be going for divorce case first because then I will not be eligible to ask for alternate accomodation of the same quality in which my husband is staying currently. Currently I can demand this.

IS this true?? If I file a divorce case then do I loose my right to demand the alternate accomodation of the same living standard from my husband or even after filing a divorce I can do so.

Your rights of accommodation / maintenance are not adversely affected by filing divorce case.

it is true that after filing divorce the court can consider this point and may not allow you for alternate house.
