The Kerala High Court held that a woman’s right to maintenance from her son is independent of her husband’s obligation. The Court ordered a Gulf-based son to pay Rs 5,000 monthly to his 60-year-old mother despite her husband providing support.
The Supreme Court rules that elderly parents can legally evict their adult children from their property under the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007 if they fail to provide care. A Mumbai son has been ordered to vacate his parents’ property by November 30, 2025.
