ATAULLAH ANSARI Vs. RASHIDA KHATOON

JUDGEMENT

(1.) HEARD learned counsel for the petitioner.

(2.) PETITIONER has challenged the Judgment dated 22nd June, 2011, passed by learned Principal Judge, Family Court, Ranchi, in Maintenance Case No.62 of 2005, whereby the petitioner is directed to make payment of maintenance of Rs.3000/- per month to his deserted wife with effect from the date of filing the application, i.e. 26.7.2005 and the arrear of the amount has been directed to be paid within three months.

(3.) HAVING heard learned counsel for the petitioner and upon going through the material brought on record and as discussed in the impugned Judgment itself, it is apparent that the case filed under Section 125 Cr.P.C., the OP wife claimed that the earning of the petitioner is about Rs.10,000/- per month. However, it appears that the pay slip of the petitioner had not been proved by the either side, but taking into consideration the admission of the petitioner himself that he is a driver in the State government, the earning of the petitioner was found to be sufficient, so as to make the payment of Rs.3,000/- per month to his deserted wife.
