The Karnataka High Court has doubled the interim maintenance amount payable to a wife in a recent order. The court stated that if the husband is living a luxurious lifestyle, the wife and child should not be left in a difficult situation. The husband has been directed to pay a monthly maintenance of Rs 1.5 lakh to the wife, along with litigation and educational expenses. The husband argued that the maintenance awarded was too high, but the court dismissed his petition, stating that his financial capabilities showed he could afford it.https://ift.tt/VG3H2dj
