YES.WHY NOT.

M V Gupta (Expert) 29 December 2010
I am of the opinion the daughter-in-law cannot claim maintenance from the father in law under Sec.125 of Cr. P.C. Only wife or legitimate or illegitimate minor child or a legitimate or illegitimate child (not being a married daughtrer) who is a major and is suffering from physical or mental abnormality can calim for maintenance under the above section.Cf Sec.125 ibid)
