Till such time, the petitioner is directed to pay a sum of Rs.2,500/- per month to the first respondent and Rs.3,000/-per month each to the second and third respondents towards interim maintenance on or before 10th of every succeeding month. The petitioner is further directed to pay the arrears, if any, to respondents 1 to 3 calculating at the rate fixed by this Court in three equal monthly installments commencing from the month of January, 2016. The payments, if any made, have to be adjusted accordingly. The trial Court shall dispose of the said M.C. on merits without being influenced by the observations of this Court.
