non-applicant who has very vehemently opposed the prayer
made by learned counsel for the applicant and very
aggressively supported the impugned judgment.
2. The wife was required to file an application under
Section 125 of the Code of Criminal Procedure before learned
Judge of the Family Court at Akola since the present
applicant, her husband, has neglected her and has failed to
maintain her.
3. The application was contested by the present
applicant. On the rival pleadings, learned Judge of the
Family Court formulated the points that, (i) whether the
present non-applicant has proved that the applicant has
neglected and refused to maintain her in site of having
sufficient means to do so?, and (ii) whether the present non-
applicant has proved that she does not have sufficient means
to maintain herself? Both the parties entered into the witness

box. Learned Judge of the Family Court at Akola vide its
judgment and order dated 19.5.2017 partly allowed E-Petition
No.10 of 2016 and directed the present applicant to pay
amount of Rs.4,000/- per month towards maintenance of the
non-applicant from the date of filing of the application i.e.
22.1.2016.
4. The only point that is raised before this Court by
learned counsel Shri Abdul Subhan for the applicant is that
the salary of the applicant is Rs.16,362/- and he is required to
pay Rs.8000/- towards loan which he has obtained and,
therefore, if Rs.4,000/- as directed by learned Judge of the
Family Court is given, he will be left with paltry sum and he
himself will not be able to maintain him.
5. Learned Judge of the Family Court in paragraph
No.21 of the judgment under consideration has very aptly
discussed this particular contention made even before her at

the time of deciding the petition.
6. Undisputedly, the applicant herein is receiving
Rs.16,362/-. Learned Judge of the Family Court has rightly
considered while reaching to the net income of the husband
that there can only be statutory deductions from the salary
then only the next salary will be determined. Learned Judge
of the Family Court, in my view, has correctly recorded the
finding that amounts of Rs.3,000/- and Rs.5,000/-, which the
applicant is submitting that he is repaying towards loan
amount, cannot be considered for reaching to the figure of net
income.
7. Consequently, no case is made out. The criminal
revision is dismissed. Rule is discharged.
