1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY, AURANGABAD BENCH, AURANGABAD CRIMINAL WRIT PETITION NO. 31 OF 2006 Machhindra s/o Ashruba Jawale ...Petitioner VERSUS Kushwarta w/o Machhindra Jawale & ors. ...Respondents ..... Shri S.S.Choudhary, advocate for the petitioner Shri S.K.Naikwade, advocate for the respondents ..... CORAM : NARESH H. PATIL, J. DATED : 21st August, 2009 PER COURT : 1 Heard. 2 Both the courts have concurrently held in favour of wife and children as regards grant of maintenance. The order of maintenance was passed by the Trial Court on 30.11.2004 granting Rs.200/- per month to the wife and Rs.100/- each per 2 month to the three children. 3 Shri Choudhary, learned counsel submitted that the petitioner himself is a poor person having 2 acres of land and has responsibility of maintaining his parents. Therefore, he is unable to pay the maintenance amount. 4 It is the duty of the husband to maintain his wife and children at the same time. This issue was considered on merits by both the courts and have reached concurrent finding. I do not find any perversity in the view adopted by the courts below. I do not find that the amount of maintenance was in any way unreasonable. No interference in the exercise of writ jurisdiction is, therefore, called for. 5 The petition is dismissed. (NARESH H.
