IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF ANDHRAPRADESH AT HYDERABAD HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE SAMUDRALA GOVINDARAJULU CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.1776 of 2009 DATE:23.08.2010 Between: G.Ravindranath Gupta …… Petitioner And: Baby G.Manasa and another …..Respondents HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE SAMUDRALA GOVINDARAJULU CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.1776 of 2009 ORDER: The petitioner is father of the minor-1st respondent. There is no dispute about relationship. The minor-1st respondent is with the petitioner’s wife with whom the petitioner has got litigation in marital and other courts. The Judge, Family Court, Rangareddy District by order dated 13.07.2009 in Crl.M.P.No.509 of 2008 in M.C. No.444 of 2008 granted interim maintenance of Rs.2,000/- per month to the minor child from the petitioner. It is contended that previously the petitioner has been depositing at the rate of Rs.500/- or Rs.1,000/- per month even without order of any Court in the account of the minor child. The said payments are not towards charity but towards his duty as a father. The amount of Rs.2,000/- per month granted by the lower Court is a pittance. I do not find any valid or legal reasons to interfere with the order passed by the lower Court. 2) In the result, the revision petition is dismissed. However, the petitioner is granted four weeks time for depositing arrears of interim maintenance. No further extension of time will be granted. _______________________________ SAMUDRALA GOVINDARAJULU, J August 23, 2010 KSH
