5. Learned counsel for the informant controverts the allegation made and submits that an interim maintenance amount has also been awarded to the complainant/opposite party no.2 in the maintenance proceeding, which the petitioner is not paying on regular basis.
6. At this stage, the petitioner offers to give Rs.2000/- (Rupees Two Thousand) per month to opposite party no.2 in the first week of every month.

7. In such view of the matter, let the above named petitioner, be released on bail, in the event of his arrest or surrender before the learned Court below within a period of four weeks from today, on furnishing bail bond of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like amount each to the satisfaction of the learned Court below where the case is pending/successor Court in connection with Complaint Case No.304-C of 2020, subject to the condition as laid down

Learned counsel for the opposite party no.2, under instruction, submits that the opposite party no.2 undertakes to provide her bank account details to the petitioner within a period of two weeks from today. If the opposite party no.2 furnishes the bank account in which the amount can be transferred, and yet the petitioner fails to give the aforesaid amount on two consecutive dates to opposite party no.2, the opposite party no.2 would be at liberty to file cancellation of bail.
9. However, at any subsequent stage, if the petitioner is able to satisfy the learned Court concerned by producing substantial and concrete evidence that opposite party no.2 has remarried, the learned Court concerned would consider to stop the payment of Rs.2000/- per month to the opposite party no.2.
