However, after six months, Reena filed a  case against the family members of her husband at Mira Road police  station under IPC sections 498A (husband or relative of husband of a  woman subjecting her to cruelty), 406 (intentional breach of trust), 34  (common intent). However, the family was acquitted of all charges after  Reena failed to establish grounds of cruelty.<br \/> &#8220;I was ready to accommodate my wife, but she spurned my proposals. I  procured a decree in 2010 from Thane court as per section 9 (conjugal  rights) of the Hindu Marriage Act, but my wife did not responded,&#8221; said  Zha.<br \/> &#8220;Reena later filed for a maintenance of Rs 7,500. However, the  principal judge dismissed her plea saying she had not responded to her  husband&#8217;s request to live with him, and that, she was an educated woman  with a masters degree and had been teaching when she stayed at Mira  Road,&#8221; said Zha.<br \/> The judge, however, ordered me to pay Rs 4,000 towards maintenance of my 7-year-old daughter, he added.<\/div>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/www.wakilsahab.in\/news\/family-court-rules-out-maintenance-to-educated-wife-who-spurned-husbands-request-to-stay-with-him\/\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"5\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground:  !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reference &#8211; http:\/\/www.dnaindia.com\/india\/report-family-court-rules-out-maintenance-to-educated-wife-who-spurned-husband-s-request-to-stay-with-him-1992660 The Gandhinagar family court, after around 4 years, dismissed the plea by a woman for maintenance from her husband on the grounds that she was educated and had not complied with his request that she return to his residence.
