    Sorry, but most of us know nothing about the Indian legal system. Hopefully someone who does will be able to help you.

    I did learn one thing by reading and researching your question. A lakh is equal to 100,000. So she is again asking for half a million (500,000) rupees? That would be ~ $10,821 (USD). Is that per year or per month?
