With DV LAW people are now fighting 3 maintenance cases; the wife can take the maintenance amount highest in these.

This is against basic common sense, just because feminists LAW makers at WCD want to give more options to the wife. 2. It is common trick by feminists LAW makers i.e., ministry of women and child development to add the controversial proposals, about which they get opposition not in the main LAW but later as part of Rules.

This can be done before any counseling begins. This puts the cart before the horse. It proceeds on the assumption that there is no reason to doubt that the respondent has committed or is likely to commit domestic violence.
