Abstract
Bangladesh is a country where people belonging to different religion are lived and different family laws are applicable for each religious people regarding their family matters. In each and every family law maintenance means that type of expenses which is required for ensuring some fundamental needs as well as the mental and physical well-being of a person. Providing maintenance is an obligation which arises out of some relationships and in some other cases for having means. Out of marriage and other relationship law creates some rights in getting maintenance and also some obligations in providing maintenance. But the trends of providing maintenance are not optimal. Lots of impediments are working behind this. This paper is an attempt to analyze the right to maintenance under different family laws as applied in Bangladesh and to find out the socio- legal hindrance of getting this right to maintenance adequately and equitably.
