CR No.1236 of 2011 Mohd.Anwar V/s Shehnaz Present: Mr.Parvez Akhtar, Advocate for the petitioner. ***** The petitioner impugns an order dated 27.10.2010, passed by the Additional Civil Judge (Senior Division), Malerkotla, wherein maintenance pendentelite was ordered @ Rs.1,000/- pm to the petitioner's daughter. I have heard counsel for the petitioner and find no reason to interfere. The amount of Rs.1,000/- pm cannot be said to be excessive or arbitrary. The petitioner's prayer that the amount of Rs.300/- pm awarded under Section 125 of the Cr.P.C. should be deducted cannot be accepted as this amount was fixed in the year 1999. The exorbitant increase in price dissuades me from accepting the petitioner's prayer. Dismissed. 21.03.2011 [RAJIVE BHALLA] shamsher JUDGE
