THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.1054 of 2004 JUDGMENT: Respondents 1 and 2 herein filed M.C.No.6 of 2000 before the Judicial First Class Magistrate, Zahirabad, under Section 125 Cr.P.C., claiming maintenance at the rate of Rs.500/- each per month. The Court below after recording the evidence adduced by both the parties, allowed the same and awarded maintenance at the rate of Rs.500/- each per month to respondents 1 and 2 herein. Subsequently, a petition was filed by respondents 1 and 2 herein under Section 127 Cr.P.C. seeking to enhance the said maintenance and the same was allowed by the Court below by an order, dated 10.03.2004, enhancing the said maintenance from Rs.500/- per month to Rs.700/- per month to each of respondents 1 and 2. The said order, dated 10.03.2004 is questioned in this Criminal Revision Case. Admittedly, the relationship between the parties in not in dispute. The first respondent is the wife and the second respondent is the child of the petitioner herein. Heard both sides. Having heard the submissions of the learned counsel appearing on either side and on perusal of the impugned order, and taking into consideration the facts and circumstances of the case, this Court is of the view that the said enhancement from Rs.500/- to Rs.700/- per month to each of respondents 1 and 2 by the Court below cannot be said to be on higher side. In fact, in these hard days, it is very difficult to survive even with the said amount of Rs.700/-. Accordingly, I see no merits in the Revision and the same is liable to be dismissed. In the result, the Criminal Revision Case is dismissed. ___________________________________ JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA 17th February 2011 DR
