Petitioner is aggrieved by the order dated 27- 08-2008 passed by the learned Principal Judge, Family Court, Samastipur in Misc. Case No. 47/2005. By the said order, learned court below, on consideration of the evidence available on record, has refused to grant any maintenance in favour of the wife of the petitioner. However, two minor children were taken care of by the impugned order and the petitioner was directed to pay a sum of Rs. 1000/- per month till further order as maintenance of the two minor sons. Learned counsel for the petitioner states that the family has only two Bigha of land and as such the 2 order directing payment of Rs. 1000/- per month is inappropriate. It is next contended that the petitioner is mentally ill. This court finds from the impugned order that after having noticed the physical conditions of the parties and their respective stand taken before the court, it was found and held, and rightly so, that the wife is not entitled for payment of any maintenance. Learned court below has found that the family of the husband admittedly possess over two bighas of land and as such he has adequate means to pay the said amount. Accordingly, petitioner was directed to pay a sum of Rs. 1000/- for the maintenance of the two minor sons of the petitioner. This court finds the order to be right and proper, meriting no interference. The application has no merit. This application is accordingly dismissed. Sujit (Kishore K.Mandal)
