Sabana Parvin v. State Of West Bengal And ORS.

Court No.

Item 16 tbsr 15.02.

CRR 409 of 2022 In the matter of:- Sabana Parvin Md. Younush Mondal .....for the petitioner This is an application seeking an expeditious disposal of a proceeding under Section 125 of the Code of Criminal Procedure.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits as follows. In December, 2020, the petitioner had filed an application under Section 125 of the Code claiming maintenance allowance from the husband/opposite party no. 2 for herself and her minor child.

She had also filed an application of interim maintenance allowance along with the main application. Several dates have gone.

The husband has taken adjournments on several occasions. But, the application for interim maintenance for the petitioner and her minor child has not been disposed of yet. She is living her life in penury. I have heard submissions of the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner and have perused the revision petition.

No prejudice will be caused to anyone if a direction is passed to expedite the proceeding.

It is quite perturbing that an application for interim

maintenance filed in 2020 has not been disposed of yet. In view of the above and in the interest of justice, I request the learned trial court to conclude the main proceeding under Section 125 of the Code as expeditiously as possible without granting any unnecessary adjournment to any of the parties and in particular, to decide the question of interim maintenance allowance at the earliest, preferably within a period of three months from the next date of hearing. With these observations, the revisional application is disposed of.

Urgent photostat certified copy of this order may be supplied to the parties expeditiously, if applied for. (Jay Sengupta, J.)
