DATED : AUGUST 17, 2010 P.C. 1 Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, who is the wife of the respondent no.1. On her application registered as case no.2/MN of 2005 under Section 3 of the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Divorce) Act, 1986, the Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate passed an order on 18.1.2007 and granted an amount of Rs.50,000/- as a lumsum provision of maintenance. This petition is filed on 8th May, 2009 seeking enhancement of that maintenance. No valid ground is given as to why for about two and half years after the said order was passed, applicant was keeping silent and why she did not approach this Court earlier. Therefore, on the ground of delays and latches, I refuse to entertain the petition. - 2 - 2 Petition stands dismissed. (J.H. BHATIA,J.)
