R.P.(F.C).No.206 OF 2007 ............................................. Dated this the 11th day of February, 2010. O R D E R This revision is preferred against the order of the Family Court, Kannur in M.C.No.311/2004. The wife and one year old child of the respondent in the M.C moved an application for maintenance and the court granted maintenance at the rate of Rs.700/= to the wife and Rs.300/= to the child. Challenging the same, the husband has come up in revision. 2. Heard the learned counsel for the revision petitioner as well as the respondents. The wife would contend that the husband is owning a fast food service coupled with banana cultivation and that he is deriving an income of Rs.10,000/= per month. The husband on the contra would contend that he is only an employee in a fast food service and therefore he cannot be saddled with higher responsibility of paying a huge maintenance. 3. Considering the present wage set up one may easily get an income of Rs.150-200 per day even if he works for : 2 : R.P.(F.C).No.206 OF 2007 20-22 days in a month. Therefore the maintenance amount awarded to the wife at the rate of Rs.700/= and Rs.300/= to the child appears to be extremely reasonable and the order does not call for any interference. The revision fails and it is dismissed. M.N. KRISHNAN, JUDGE cl : 3 : R.P.(F.C).No.206 OF 2007
