You can't claim maintenance as you are above 18 years. As per law a male who become major they can't claim maintenance from father. But you can file DVC Domestic Violence Case against you father through mother she can claim a share in the flat and you both can stay in that flat as per DVC Act and your mother can claim maintenance from your father.
