Under section 125 4 of Cr PC who of the following cannot claim maintenance ........

Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) 1973 Maintenence

Under section 125(4) of Cr PC who of the following cannot claim maintenance:

wife living in adultery

wife living separately by mutual consent

both (a) and (b)

either (a) or (b).

- Section 125(4) of the CrPC lays down exceptions for a wife's right to claim maintenance.

- A wife is not entitled to maintenance if she is living in adultery. (Option 1)

- She is also not entitled to maintenance if she lives separately by mutual consent. (Option 2)

- Option 3, "both (a) and (b)", suggests she cannot claim maintenance in either scenario, which is correct.

- Option 4, "either (a) or (b)", also means the same as option 3.

- So both option 3 and option 4 convey the correct understanding.

- However, as per the conventional style, option 4 ("either (a) or (b)") is the most accurate legal phrasing.

Option 4: either (a) or (b) is the correct answer.
