STATE OF JHARKHAND Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THE petitioner was directed to pay a sum of Rs. 1,000 as maintenance per month under Sec. 125, Cr.P.C. to Sunil Devi, his wife, who is the opposite party No. 2 in this revision.

(2.) AGAINST the aforesaid order of the Family Court, present revision has been filed.

(3.) THE learned Counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the allegations made by opposite party No. 2 before the Family Court in the petition filed under Section 125, Cr.P.C. are false and that he is ready to live with her, if she is willing to come and join him in his house. He also submits that a sum of Rs. 1,000 awarded as maintenance to opposite party No. 2 is on the higher side, since, according to him, the petitioner is only a labourer.
