Akshara Singh Backs Jyoti Singh’s Alimony Claim, Calls for Stronger Support for Divorced Women

Mumbai, Feb 2026 : Actress Akshara Singh has publicly come out in support of Jyoti Singh, the estranged wife of Bhojpuri actor-politician Pawan Singh, endorsing her demand for alimony and financial maintenance. Akshara’s remarks have sparked fresh discussion on the rights of divorced women and the need for society and the legal system to ensure fair financial security after marital separation.

Akshara Singh, who was previously in a relationship with Pawan Singh, described Jyoti Singh’s demand as both justified and necessary. She stressed that marriage brings shared responsibilities and that women who leave their homes and build their lives around a marital relationship should not be left financially vulnerable if that marriage breaks down. According to her, alimony is not charity but a rightful entitlement rooted in dignity and justice.

Speaking candidly, Akshara said that when a woman commits herself to a marriage, she takes on emotional, social, and personal responsibilities that often limit her independence and career choices. In such circumstances, she argued, a woman has every right to seek adequate financial support if the relationship ends. Akshara further stated that society should move beyond arbitrary limits on alimony and recognize that financial compensation must reflect the husband’s income, status, and the lifestyle the woman was accustomed to during the marriage.

Her comments come amid ongoing matrimonial litigation between Jyoti Singh and Pawan Singh. Jyoti Singh has formally approached the court seeking interim and permanent alimony, citing Indian matrimonial law provisions that entitle a spouse to maintenance in cases of separation. In her plea, she has highlighted the significant disparity in income, social standing, and earning capacity between the two parties.

As per court documents reported in the media, Jyoti Singh has stated that she does not currently have an independent source of income sufficient to maintain a standard of living comparable to that of her husband. She has also alleged emotional distress, marital discord, and abandonment, claiming that the breakdown of the marriage occurred due to circumstances beyond her control.

On these grounds, Jyoti Singh has sought financial support to meet her day-to-day living expenses, legal costs, and long-term security. Pawan Singh, however, has contested the claims and submitted counter-arguments, seeking relief through legal channels. The case has gone through multiple hearings, during which the court has examined financial disclosures, marriage records, and submissions from both sides.

Like many matrimonial disputes, the final outcome will depend on the court’s assessment of evidence, income, and liabilities. The matter remains under judicial consideration, with no final ruling on alimony passed so far.
