Woman are married off by their fathers so that their husband will look after them till he dies or even after he dies.  That is the concept of marriage in India.  If you apply for divorce, you will have to pay alimony to her till she dies or till she remarry.

If she does not have practice she can always seek alimony.

maintenance can only be declined when wife has sufficient means to maintain herself merely saying by her that she is capable to earn is not sufficient .Maintenance will be granted in given facts.
