A.Hi,
You will receive maintenance even if he quit his job since High Court has ruled that a spouse who has willfully handicapped himself from earning cannot dodge his responsibility to support his wife and child.

A.Hi,
In Rousseau Mitra Vs. Shrimati Chandana Mitra the learned Single Calcutta High Court has held that when the husband voluntarily having incapacitated himself from earning, he cannot avoid his liability to maintain his wife and child. Therefore, even if he left his job based on his savings and other sources of income you will get maintenance.

A.Yes he can leave his job as that his choice and his life to do so and no one ca stop him from doing that. But his liability to maintain you and the child does not go way and and has to pay whenever he starts earning or from his any earning.
