IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CR No.6190 of 2009 (O & M) Date of decision: 23.03.2010 Karanjit Singh .. Petitioner Versus Daljit Kaur .. Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE AJAY TEWARI a). Whether Reporters of Local Papers may be allowed to see the judgment ? b). To be referred to the Reporters or not ? c). Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest ? Present:- Ms. G.K.Mann, Advocate for the petitioner Mr.Munish Behal, Advocate for the respondent . . . AJAY TEWARI, J. (ORAL) This petition has been filed against the order of the learned Trial Court fixing maintenance of Rs.4,000/- as maintenance pendente lite to the respondent and two years' old daughter of the petitioner. The only ground taken in the revision is that out of salary of the petitioner, he has obtained a Housing Loan and after deducting the same, he would not have the enough money to pay the maintenance of Rs.4,000/- p.m.. In my opinion, any loan which the petitioner has obtained to create an asset for himself cannot be off-set against the dues on the maintenance of the wife and minor daughter and an amount of Rs.4,000/- p.m. as maintenance can hardly be termed to be excessive in today's time. Consequently, this petition as well as Civil Miscellaneous Application, if any, is dismissed. March 23, 2010 (AJAY TEWARI) Sukhpreet JUDGE
