of <h1>Section 144: Maintenance Mandates for Neglected Families; Interim Orders in 60 Days, Non-Compliance Leads to Imprisonment</h1> Section 144 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, mandates maintenance for wives, children, and parents if a person with sufficient means neglects or refuses to support them. A Magistrate can order monthly allowances for maintenance, including interim maintenance during proceedings. Applications for interim maintenance should be resolved within sixty days. If the ordered person fails to comply, the Magistrate may issue a warrant and impose imprisonment for non-payment. A wife cannot claim maintenance if living in adultery, refusing to live with her husband without reason, or if they live separately by mutual consent. The Magistrate can cancel orders if these conditions are proven.
