THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GHULAM MOHAMMED C.R.P.No.3009 of 2010 ORDER: This revision is directed against the order, dated 19.05.2010 passed by the learned Judge, Additional Family Court, Visakhapatnam, in I.A.No.84 of 2010 in F.C.O.P.No.911 of 2009 filed under Order XIX Rule 1 CPC by the respondent herein seeking to grant maintenance at the rate of Rs.8,000/-per month payable by the petitioner. 2. The respondent is the wife of the petitioner. It is stated that after differences arose between them, she is staying at the place of her parents. She filed the said O.P. under Section 13(1)(a) of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 against the petitioner seeking divorce. Pending the said O.P., she filed the above said I.A. seeking monthly maintenance from the petitioner, who is drawing a monthly salary of Rs.30,000/-as an employee in Visakhapatnam Steel Plant and is earning a sum of Rs.5,000/-per month towards rents. The Court below after consideration of the material on record, allowed the said I.A. granting monthly maintenance at the rate of Rs.3,000/-per month to the respondent payable by the petitioner from the date of the said order till disposal of the main O.P. Aggrieved by the same, the petitioner filed the present civil revision petition. 3. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and perused the material on record. 4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner is getting the monthly salary after deductions, which is not sufficient to maintain himself and his mother as both of them are suffering from ill-health and they require amount for their treatment and medicines and thus, he prays to set aside the order impugned. 5. The marriage of the petitioner and the respondent took place on 18.05.1989 and they were not blessed with children. It is stated that after separation from her husband, the respondent is depending on her aged parents. There is no dispute that the petitioner is a Government employee and drawing monthly salary of Rs.30,000/-. The petitioner being husband has to provide all necessities to his wife. Taking into consideration the monthly salary of the petitioner, the Court below has granted the maintenance at the rate of Rs.3,000/- per month to the respondent- wife. In view of the present day’s cost of living and rise in prices, the said amount appears to be just and reasonable. Therefore, I do not find any infirmity in the order impugned warranting interference by this Court. 6. Hence, the Civil Revision Petition is dismissed. No order as to costs. ______________________ GHULAM MOHAMMED, J Date:16.07.2009 sj
