The Court below, taking note of the fact that the petitioner is earning a sum of Rs.15,000/- per month as rental income from two of his houses and also the fact that the petitioner is an M.E.Graduate and is bound to provide a decent amount of maintenance to his wife and his minor daughter, ordered a nominal amount as maintenance.
