Can’t Ask Daughter-In-Law To Pay Mother-In-Law Maintenance Under Senior Citizens Act : Bombay High Court

[19 May 2022] The Bombay High Court has observed that a daughter-in-law cannot be directed to pay maintenance to her ailing mother-in-law, especially in the absence of any proof of the woman’s income. “We have reservations about such direction to SS (daughter-in-law) to pay maintenance amount to the mother-in-law…Be that as it may, upon perusal of the original record, we do not find a single document showing the earnings of SS (daughter-in-law),” the HC observed.
