Alok Singh, J.(Oral) This petition is filed by the wife for enhancement of maintenance pendente lite. Admittedly, husband is working in the Government Senior Secondary School and is getting carry home salary of approximately Rs.30,000/- per month. Husband is not having any other responsibility. As per the status of the parties, wife is entitled to the maintenance pendente lite minimum at the rate of Rs.10,000/- per month. CR No.7447 of 2010 2 Rs.8,000/- fixed by the trial Court seems to be on lower side. Order passed by the trial Court stands modified. Husband shall pay maintenance pendente lite to the wife at the rate of Rs.10,000/- per month during the pendency of the suit. Litigation expenses need no interference. It is pointed out that wife is also getting maintenance under Section 125 Cr.P.C. for herself Rs.3000/- per month and for the minors son Rs,3000/- per month, total Rs.6000/- per month. It is clarified that the amount being paid under Section 125 Cr.P.C. shall be adjusted while paying the amount of Rs.10,000/- per month as maintenance pendent lite in the present petition. Petition stands disposed of. ( Alok Singh ) Judge 16.11.2010 sk.
