Re: maintenance u/s 125

the case you have no adverse effect on your service in case you handle it smartly. in case she has filed a suit for maintenance and you feel that she has deserted you without sufficient cause, then file a reply in the court and state true facts. your reply would help you in other cases as well where she would try n harass you.
