NO, if she is able to maintain herself at a standard at par with what she was having while living with you in her matrimonial home. Otherwise she can still claim if there is a very big difference in your salaries.

Yes she can! it depend on your salary, her salary & standard of living!

If you can prove it, you have a strong case to defend ur self

but it doesn't mean that she cann't file a case against you.

dear savita singh

If you can prove it, you have a strong case to defend ur self - she is working in STATE BANK OF PATALIA as a clerk ( govt employee )

 

but it doesn't mean that she cann't file a case against you. - okay

Whatever it be but u have to prove that thing na....

court will not go to see whether ur wife work in anywhere or not

You yourself is not sure where ur wife work (SBI or State bank of Patiala)
