Man pays alimony of ₹25000 in coins (~375kg). Says he'd do the same next month

an advocate of the Punjab and Haryana High Court brought a bag full of Re 1 and Rs 2 coins and placed it in front of everyone. Two persons helped him drag the bag inside the court room.

there is no provision in law to give maintenance in any particular form. “She is to be paid Rs 25,000 and I brought it in whichever form I could.” When the court adjourned the case, the advocate’s two juniors dragged the bag into the court staff’s room and started counting the coins. The total value of the coins turned out to be Rs. 24,600. Then the advocate added four Rs 100 notes in the bag. Since the court had called it a day by that time, the advocate took his bag and told the onlookers that he would bring money in the same format on the next date of hearing.

Suppose it's an even split between ₹1 and ₹2 coins, that would be ₹12500 coins in ₹1 deomination and ₹6250 in ₹2 denomination, making total of 18,750 coins. If each coin weighed 20 grams, the total weight would be 375Kg (~875 lbs). Mad lad!

Married in 2014, divorced in 2015. And they're talking about maintenance. What a stupid rule. Why are they turning marriage into a business? I personally believe maintenance should not exist at all, because it is too cruel to punish the person paying after the marriage has already ended.

tactic of her husband to torture and harass her.

Such torture, much harassment. Yeah he's being cheeky, but you get your money, get over it.

The fact he has to pay so much for a three month marriage is absurd to begin with.

It's like that fake news where Samsung settled an IP lawsuit with Apple and they paid in coins. Except, this is true.

Assuming this is Indian currency, the amount in U.S. Dollars is $3,630.53.
