CORAM : A.A.SAYED,J. DATE : 16/11/2010. 1] The order dated 2/2/2010 passed by Civil Judge, Senior Division,Osmanabad is subject matter of challenge in the above petition. By that order, the trial Court directed the petitioner husband to pay a sum of Rs.1200/- p.m. as interim maintenance to the respondent wife from the date of the application. The only grievance of the petitioner before this Court is that the respondent wife is a Medical Practitioner and therefore, she has own independent source of income and therefore, the trial Court ought not to have granted any maintenance. 2] On perusal of record, I find that respondent wife had categorically stated in her application that she has stopped her practice as medical practitioner and has no means to maintain herself and therefore, unable to make both the ends meet. In the circumstances, in my view it was obligatory on the part of the petitioner husband to show that in fact the respondent wife was having her own source of income. Admittedly nothing is brought on record to demonstrate this fact. The petitioner is admittedly earning more than Rs.10,000/- p.m. and the maintenance order is only for a sum of Rs.1200/- p.m. 3] In these circumstances, I do not find any illegality or infirmity in the impugned order. The impugned order does not warrant any interference at the hands of this Court in exercise of extraordinary writ jurisdiction. Petition is therefore, dismissed summarily. No order as to costs.
