DEVDULAL PRADHAN Vs. MOUSUMI PRADHAN

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THE subject matter of challenge in this case is an order under section 127 of the Code of Criminal Procedure whereby the learned Magistrate enhanced the maintenance amount awarded to the wife/opposite party and her three daughters.

(2.) I have carefully gone through the order impugned and I find that the learned Magistrate has not committed any mistake in enhancing the maintenance amount in these hard days. The quantum of maintenance is quite meager and is fully commensurate with the earning of the petitioner. This order, therefore, does not deserve to be interfered with. Furthermore, this is a case where neither the marriage nor the paternity of the daughters were under dispute.
