Vide earlier order of this Court dated 18.12.2008 the matter was referred to the mediation centre. As per the mediation centre's report dated 22.5.2009 which is on record, the applicant -husband and opposite party no.2-wife have settled their disputes on a permanent alimony of Rs.1,00,000/- which has been paid over to the opposite party no.2-wife by the applicant -husband.
