IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Criminal Misc.No. M- 901 of 2009 Date of decision:- 18.3.2010 Chandresh Kumar ...Petitioner Versus Bimla Kumari and others ...Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAM CHAND GUPTA Present:- Mrs. Kiran Bala Jain, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. S.M. Sharma, Advocate for the respondents. RAM CHAND GUPTA J.(Oral) The present revision-petition has been filed against the order dated 06.2.2009 passed by learned Additional Sessions Judge, Ambala in appeal against the order dated 23.9.2008 passed by learned Judicial Magistrate 1st Class, Ambala, vide which amount of maintenance, granted to the respondents was enhanced i.e. in case of petitioner No.1 it was enhanced from Rs.500/- to Rs.750/- and in case of petitioner Nos.2 and 3 enhanced from Rs.250/- each to Rs.500/-each from the date of application. The only point contended by learned counsel for the petitioner is that petitioner being labourer is not in a position to pay the entire arrears from the date of the application at the enhanced rates and that however, petitioner is ready to pay maintenance at the enhanced rates from the date of orders passed by learned Additional Sessions Judge i.e. w.e.f. 06.2.2009. Hence, in view of the fact that the revision-petitioner is having no fixed earning, the present petition is partly accepted and the impugned order dated 06.2.2009 is modified to the extent that revision-petitioner is directed to pay the maintenance @ Rs.750/- per month to respondent No.1 and Rs.500/- each to respondent Nos.2 and 3 per month from the date of order of learned Criminal Misc.No. M- 901 of 2009 -2- Additional Sessions Judge, Ambala i.e. 06.2.2009.
