Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
The first proviso to Section 144(3) of the BNSS (formerly section 125(3) CrPC) requires the application to recover a due maintenance amount by warrant to be made within one year of that amount becoming due. This is the time limit for that particular enforcement process. It does not mean that the underlying continuing obligation to pay maintenance automatically ends after a year.
