Sahani Khatoon, daughter of Anwarul Haque, wife of Sabir Raza, presently residing at village- Manganpur, P.S.- Bhagwanpur, District- Vaishali. 2. The State of Bihar. ……….Opposite Parties ----------- 2. 23.11.2011 This revision application has been filed under Section 19(4) of Family Courts Act against the order dated 5.08.2009 passed by the learned Principal Judge, Family Court, Vaishali at Hajipur in Maintenance Case No.102/2008 by which the petitioner has been directed to pay a sum of Rs.3000/-per month to his wife, opposite party no.1. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is not in a position to pay the amount and secondly the petitioner has divorced his wife, opposite party no.1. It appears from the impugned order that in spite of service of notice and publication of the notice in the newspaper, the petitioner did not appear and the case has been proceeded ex-parte. The learned Principal Judge 2 has considered the evidence adduced on behalf of both the parties. It further appears that it is admitted fact that the petitioner is the husband of the opposite party no.1. The petitioner has sufficient means to maintain his wife, opposite party no.1, whereas, she has no means to maintain herself. Considering all the materials, the learned Principal Judge has directed the petitioner to pay a sum of Rs.3000/-per month to his wife, opposite party no.1. Considering the facts and circumstances stated above, I do not find any ground to interfere with the impugned order. This petition is dismissed. V.K. Pandey ( Amaresh Kumar Lal, J.)
