Mr. Brajendra Nath Pandey, APP ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE BIBEK CHAUDHURI ORAL ORDER 06-02-2024 On 25th January, 2024, the instant revision was heard in part. On the prayer made on behalf of petitioner to seek certain instruction, the matter was adjourned. However, when the matter is called on today, the petitioner is found absent.

2. Learned Advocate for the State of Bihar, opposite party no. 1 is present.

3. On perusal of the impugned order, passed by the learned Principal Judge, Family Court, Nalanda in Miscellaneous Case No. 67M of 2014, dated 26th March, 2018, the petitioner was directed to pay Rs. 5,000/- per month to the opposite party no. 2 for her and her minor children's maintenance.

Patna High Court CR. REV. No.333 of 2019(5) dt.06-02-2024 2/2

4. Considering the amount, this Court is of the view that the amount of maintenance is very meager and the petitioner is under obligation to pay the same. It is not in dispute that the petitioner is a young man capable of earning for the maintenance of self, his wife and children.

5. Considering such finding, I do not find any reason of interference against the impugned order.

6. The instant revision is accordingly dismissed. (Bibek Chaudhuri, J) pravinkumar/- U T
