THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA CIVIL REVISION PETITION No.5726 of 2010 ORDER: This Civil Revision Petition is filed under Article 227 of the Constitution of India against the order dated 16.11.2010 passed by the Judge, Family Court, Ranga Reddy District at L.B.Nagar in I.A.No.753 of 2010 in O.P.No.250 of 2008. The respondent/wife filed the above O.P seeking dissolution of marriage. In the said O.P, she filed the present Interlocutory Application seeking interim maintenance @ Rs.5,000/- per month and a sum of Rs.5,000/- towards legal expenses, stating that the petitioner/husband, who is working as a Police Constable, was habituated to all bad vices and harassing her physically and mentally suspecting her character and made her to leave his company because of his un-bearable harassment. The petitioner/husband contested the Interlocutory Application by filing a counter-affidavit denying the allegations made by the wife. The Court, below, after hearing the learned counsel for the respondent/wife and perusing the counter- affidavit, and since the wife was suffering with cancer, awarded interim maintenance @ Rs.3,500/- per month. Hence, this revision petition. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and perused the entire material available on record. Under the Hindu Law, the husband has a duty to care and maintain his wife and children. A perusal of the impugned order discloses that the respondent/wife is suffering with cancer. Since the petitioner herein is working as Constable and earning Rs.10,000/- per month, the amount of interim maintenance of Rs.3,500/- p.m. awarded by the court below cannot be said to be on the higher side, warranting its reduction. Therefore, the impugned order does not suffer from any illegality, warranting interference by this Court. The Civil Revision Petition is accordingly dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs.
