THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE B. CHANDRA KUMAR F.C.A. No. 278 of 2010 Judgment: This Family Court Appeal is directed against the order dated 17.07.2010, passed by the Judge, Family Court, Ranga Reddy District, in O.P. No. 909 of 2008. The respondent-wife filed the O.P. seeking divorce from the appellant-husband and grant Rs.10,00,000/- i.e. Rs.4,00,000/- each towards marriage expenses of their two daughters and Rs.2,00,000/- towards permanent alimony. The appellant-husband contested the O.P. The Judge, Family Court, by reason of the order dated 17.07.2010, allowed the O.P. by granting divorce and awarding Rs.4,00,000/- each towards marriage of their two daughters and Rs.2,00,000/- to the respondent-wife towards permanent alimony. Questioning the said order of the Judge, Family Court, to the extent it awarded Rs.4,00,000/- each towards marriage of their two daughters and Rs.2,00,000/- to the respondent-wife towards permanent alimony, the appellant-husband filed the present appeal. We have heard the learned counsel for the appellant-husband and also perused the order under appeal. The learned counsel for the appellant-husband submitted that the appellant-husband is working as Checking Inspector in Civil Supplies Department, and is drawing a meagre salary of Rs.12,000/-, of which his net pay is Rs.8,000/-, and out of which he is already paying Rs.5,000/- towards interim maintenance of the respondent-wife and children, and considering the income left for his survival, he contended that the Judge, Family Court, committed a grave error in awarding Rs.4,00,000/- each towards marriage of their two daughters and Rs.2,00,000/- to the wife towards permanent alimony, the fact remains, the appellant-husband, who examined himself as R.W.1 in his cross-examination stated that he is ready and willing to spend about Rs.50,00,000/- towards marriage expenses of his daughters, provided they get good alliances. The appellant-husband, himself having expressed his willingness to spend about Rs.50,00,000/- towards marriage expenses of his two daughters, we fail to understand, how he can be aggrieved by the grant of Rs.4,00,000/- each towards marriage expenses of their two daughters and Rs.2,00,000/- to the respondent-wife towards permanent alimony, particularly when the amount awarded under the impugned order, is far less than which the appellant-husband agreed to spend for the marriages of his two daughters. Apart from the salary, which the appellant-husband is getting, it was pleaded by the respondent-wife that the appellant-husband, is owning a residential house, the appellant-husband did no deny his plea of the respondent-wife. Be that as it may, considering the present cost of living and rising inflation, we are of the opinion that grant of Rs.4,00,000/- each towards the marriages of his two daughters and Rs.2,00,000/- to the respondent- wife towards permanent alimony, by the Judge, Family Court, under the impugned order, cannot be said to be on the higher side, warranting interference therewith by this Court in exercise of its appellate jurisdiction under Section 19(1) of the Family Court Act. We find no merit in the Family Court Appeal, and the same is accordingly dismissed at the stage of admission. No costs. ________________ N.V. RAMANA, J. _______________________ B. CHANDRA KUMAR, J.
