Magistrate reflects that the ex parte maintenance passed in M. Case No. 524 of 2019 has been vacated and the said order was directed to take effect from the date when the order was passed on 4th of February, 2023.

The said order was challenged before the ld.

Revisional court and the ld. Revisional court by its order dated 20th January, 2024 in Criminal Revision No. 278 of 2023 dismissed the revisional application with certain observations.

Since the ld. Magistrate has allowed the application under section 126(2) of the cr.p.c., an opportunity of evidence must be granted to the husband.

Accordingly, I direct that as the next date has been fixed on 6th of June, 2024, the ld. JM, 5th Court, Barrackpore, if possible, would pre-pone the date and direct that in case further examination in chief is not required by the applicant, she may tender herself and the other

With the aforesaid observations, CRR 1320 of 2024 is disposed of.
