1. Defects, as pointed out by the Registry, are hereby, ignored.
2. The present revisionist is the husband who has invoked the Revisional jurisdiction of this Court against the order dated 11.12.2019, passed by the court of learned Additional Principal Judge, Additional Family Court, Jamshedpur in O.M. (Misc. Case) No.291 of 2017, whereby the maintenance amount of Rs.6,000/- (Six thousand) per month to his wife, Rs.4,000/- (Four thousand) per month to the minor eldest son, Rs.2,000/- (Two thousand) per month to the minor daughter and Rs.2,000/- (Two thousand) per month to the youngest son, has been awarded from the date of the order.
3. The quantum of maintenance has been challenged by disputing the income assessed by the court below. The other parameters of the impugned judgment has been accepted. It has been submitted that the revisionist is a labourer and his monthly earning is around Rs.8,000/- (Eight thousand), and as such, he is unable to pay the maintenance amount as has been awarded by the court below.
4. Having heard the learned counsel for the revisionist and on going through the impugned order, it appears that the court below has taken into consideration the oral as well as
the documentary evidence. Photographs suggests that the revisionist has the grocery shop. The marriage of the revisionist with O.P No.01 was solemnized in the year 2009 as per the muslim rites and they have been blessed with three children. Two children are studying in Motilal Nehru Public School and the youngest child is studying in a Play School.
Thus, considering the living standard and status of the parties and further the evidence brought on record, the court below has assessed the income of the revisionist at around Rs.50,000/- (Fifty thousand) per month and on that basis Rs.6,000/- (Six thousand) per month maintenance has been awarded to the wife, Rs.4,000/- (Four thousand) per month to the minor eldest son, Rs.2,000/- (Two thousand) per month to the minor daughter and Rs.2,000/- (Two thousand) per month to the youngest son.
It is well settled law that proceeding under Section 125 of the Cr.P.C is to prevent vagrancy and destitution and it is temporary in nature.
5. In view of the above discussion and on perusal of the materials available on record, I do not find any reason to interfere with the impugned order accordingly, the criminal revision application is, hereby, rejected.
