The order of payment of maintenance under section 125 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, passed by Judicial Magistrate First Class, Kalamnuri, in Criminal Misc. Application No.91 of 1999 was modified in Revision No.5 of 2001 by Additional Sessions Judge, Hingoli, vide order dated 8th October, 2003, by awarding maintenance of Rs.500/-, instead of Rs.3,000/- under iddat period and Rs.5,051/- towards maher. 2.

The order of payment of maintenance is holding the field since last thirteen years. Having regard to the meager quantum of maintenance ordered, i.e. Rs.500/- per month and expenses required for a reasonable living as on today, in my opinion, it will be appropriate not to interfere in extraordinary jurisdiction.
