she can move court for necessary reliefs . enlcose copy of her medical bills . court will consider her application . since amount of Rs 90,000 awarded was insufficent husband may be directed to pay some additional amount to his ex wife
as adviced earlier she can move to court under section 25 HMA & ask additional maintenance as per varied circumtrances
Yes she can file a petition again in view of the change in circumstances. The court might just order the husband to support her financially given her medically sensitive state.
under the circumstances explained by you, it is not possible to claim any more than what she has already taken as part of full and final settlement. however, your earlier divorce order needs to be scrutinized.
