Ms. Manveen Kahlon, Advocate, for the petitioner.

***** Rakesh Kumar Jain, J. (Oral) Petitioner No.1 has retired from the Fire Brigade Department and is living with his wife at village Galrian. They have two sons, namely, Joginder Pal and Raj Pal. Joginder Pal is serving in the M.E.S. and is presently posted in Jammu and Kashmir, whereas their another son Raj Pal is a daily wager and living with his wife. The petitioners, due to bad behaviour of their sons, disowned both of them. The house, in which the petitioners are living, belongs to them and is also being used by their son Raj Pal and his wife. In the past, wife of Joginder Pal had also filed a case under Section 498-A of the IPC against the petitioners though, during investigation, they were exonerated. Hence, dismayed with the bad behaviour of their sons, the petitioners have filed a petition under Section 22(2)(i) of the Punjab Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Rules, 2012 before the District Magistrate, Gurdaspur, in which no
