(3.) Initially, vide order dated 29.6.2000 passed in M.Cr.C. No.309 of 1998, the Family Court granted monthly maintenance of Rs.350/-to Smt. Parwati arrayed above as Applicant in Criminal Revision No.379 of 2018 and Respondent in Criminal Revision No.27 of 2018 and that of Rs.350/- to her minor son. Thereafter, Smt. Parwati filed an application under Section 127 of the Code of Criminal Procedure for enhancement of the amount of maintenance which was registered as M.Cr.C. No.348 of 2012 in which the parties have been entered into a compromise on 14.2.2013 and on the basis of the compromise, monthly maintenance was enhanced from Rs.350/- to Rs.2,000/- in favour of Smt. Parwati and from Rs.350/- to Rs.1,000/- in favour of her minor son. Thereafter, Kamlesh, who is husband of Smt. Parwati and is arrayed above as the Respondent in Criminal Revision No.379 of 2018 and the Applicant in Criminal Revision No.27 of 2018 filed an application, being M.Cr.C. No.75 of 2015 under Section 127 of the Code of Criminal Procedure praying that the orders passed in M.Cr.Cs. No.309 of 1998 and 348 of 2012 be set aside on the ground that the same have been passed without appreciating the facts on record. He is suffering from mental disorder and the compromise had been done by putting pressure on him. It was further pleaded that his wife Smt. Parwati has sufficient source to earn as she has one house situated at Rajiv Nagar and has given the said house on rent by which she is earning Rs.10,000/- per month as rent and apart from that she is getting Rs.6,000/- per month as pension. It was further alleged that the wife is living in adultery, therefore, she is not entitled for any maintenance. In her reply, Smt. Parwati denied the averments made by husband Kamlesh.
