My parent has demanded 10% of my salary as his maintenance because he said that I earn a lot. Can he do that?

I understand that my contributions towards maintenance is for life of either party. How do I know if my parent is still alive years forward as we do not communicate at all?

My parents do not want to claim from my siblings who are not maintaining them. Can I claim on their behalf?

My grandparents/siblings were the ones who raised me up. Can I refuse to maintain my parents?
