Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

Under s.25(3) of the Hindu Marriage Act, if the wife in whose favour alimony was ordered "has re-married" or "has not remained chaste", the court may, at the husband's instance, vary, modify or rescind the order. Moving residence or appealing the amount does not attract this provision.
