Amrendra Kumar Paul vs Maya Paul & Ors

The Supreme Court upheld the order of the Calcutta High Court affirming the Magistrate's decision under Section 125 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, which granted maintenance to the wife and children despite the children having attained majority. The Court clarified that the right to maintenance under Section 125 continues until the children attain majority, and the wife is entitled to claim maintenance for herself and her children. The appeal was dismissed, reinforcing the principle that maintenance obligations persist until the conditions specified in the law are met.
