Legal Question in Family Law in India

With the inclusion of "THE IRRETRIEVABLE BREAK DOWN OF MARRIAGE" as another ground for divorce, does the husband has to pay maintainance or alimony to his wife?? My wife is sczopheranic (its an major mental disorder) and this fact was hidden from us by her parents at the time of marriage.

Kindly advice as how to go forward.
