THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA C.R.P. No. 4417 of 2010 O r d e r: This C.R.P. is directed against the order dated 29.06.2010, passed by the Family Court, Ranga Reddy District, in I.A. No. 1751 of 2009 in O.P. No. 682 of 2009, granting interim maintenance of Rs.5,000/- to the respondent. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and perused the order under revision. The petitioner is the husband while the respondent is his wife. He also filed O.P. for divorce. The respondent filed the present application contending that the petitioner is a Software Engineer and was earning Rs.1,20,000/- per month, and as he necked her out of the house, she is entitled to maintenance and claimed Rs.25,000/- per month as interim maintenance. The petitioner contested the application stating that presently he is jobless, that respondent is an MBA graduate and that she was working as Insurance Consultant for Bajaj Allianz Life Insurance, and was earning Rs. 40,000/- per month, and as such, she is not entitled to any maintenance. Though the petitioner claimed that respondent was earning Rs.40,000/- per month and the respondent claimed that the petitioner was earning Rs.1,20,000/- per month, but in the absence of any material filed by them to show that they were earning such sum. However, having regard to the fact that the petitioner is a Software Engineer, and that with a view to avoid payment of maintenance, he pleaded that he is not working, and considering the income which a Software Engineer would get, the Family Court felt it appropriate to grant interim maintenance of Rs.5,000/- to the respondent, and having regard to the fact that under the Hindu Law, the husband has the duty to maintain his wife and children, no exception can be taken to the order under revision passed by the Family Court, granting interim maintenance of Rs.5,000/- to the respondent. For the foregoing reasons, this Court find no reason whatsoever to interfere with the order under revision in exercise of its supervisory jurisdiction under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. The C.R.P. is devoid of merit, and the same is accordingly dismissed. No costs. ___________________ N.V. RAMANA, J. Dated: 6th October, 2010 KSR
