THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE GODA RAGHURAM CIVIL REVISION PETITION No. 4115 of 2010 Dated: 9-12-2010 Order: Aggrieved by the order dated 29-4-2010 of the learned III Additional Senior Civil Judge, Kakinada enhancing the maintenance in favour of the respondent herein from Rs.700/- earlier granted, to Rs.2000/-, is this revision under Article 227 of the Constitution filed. Admittedly the petitioner is deriving an income of Rs.9083/- per month as pension. He disclaimed ability to pay enhanced maintenance on the ground that he has to take care of his aged mother and her medical requirements for which he provides an amount of Rs.1000/- per month; that he has to pay rents at the rate of Rs.1600/- per month in a panchayat area Narsipatnam; and he has to pay Rs.3500/- per month towards loan instalment for a personal loan secured from the State Bank of India. The Court below rightly concluded that the respondent who is staying in Kakinada, a Municipal Corporation area, is entitled to at least Rs.2000/- per month as against Rs.2500/- claimed by her, for the maintenance. Accordingly the court below directed enhancement of the monthly maintenance from Rs.700/- to Rs.2000/-, from the date of the order. The Court below also and rightly found that the petitioner has the means to pay the enhanced amount of maintenance to the respondent. This Court discerns no error in the exercise of discretion of the court below and on the analysis of the facts available before it, warranting interference under Article 227 of the Constitution. There are no merits. The civil revision petition is accordingly dismissed. No costs. ______________________ GODA RAGHURAM, J 9th December, 2010 GRR
