You can claim maintenance as per the section 125 of CRPC as it is the duty of the husband to maintain the wife and children. As far as restitution of conjugal rights is concerned, it is about co-habitation wherein one of the partners in marriage can approach the court if the other has deserted him or her. I don't think this makes much sense in your scenario.
However, although you are going for job to support yourself and your children doesnot mean that your husband is free from his responsibility of maintaining you and especially the children as it is his responsibility also. You can approach a lawyer and he will definitely guide you in details as per your situation.
Hi,
You may file both the cases i.e. 125 CrPC maintenance as well as sec 9 HMA (RCR) and protect your marriage as well as liabilities also.
Since your husband has abandoned you and the kids you may file a maintenance case under section 125 cr.p.c. for you and your kids (provided you are not employed ).
You can also file a DV case against your husband and his parents seeking protection, residence, maintenance and compensation including school fees for your children and their medical expenses.
If he is filing a divorce case you can challenge the same properly
You can file a maintenance case for your kids alone. Filing RCR case may not be very effective however that also can be tried.
Dear Madam,
Those who are not able to maintain themselves can claim right to maintenance under Section 125 Cr P C by way of filing a simple application before the concerned Magistrate/Mahila Court.
It is the duty of the husband to take care of the wife and his children maintain his wife and children. But, at times the husband refuses to maintain the wife and children.
In such a situation, the wife can take the matter to the court and ask for her maintenance from her husband.
Section 9 of Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 (HMA) provides for restitution of conjugal rights (RCR). It states that if one of the spouses abandons the other without any reasonable cause, the aggrieved party has a legal right to file a petition in the matrimonial court for restitution of conjugal rights.
