CRLR/790/2025 Trilok Chandra --Revisionist Versus Bharti Rana -Respondent Hon'ble Alok Mahra, J.
Mr. Deepak Chandra, learned counsel for the revisionist.
Ms. Aashna Parashar, learned counsel for the respondent.
2. The present Criminal Revision has been preferred against the order dated 23.08.2025 passed by the learned Principal Judge, Family Court, Haldwani, District Nainital in Case No. 566 of 2024, “Bharti Rani vs. Trilok Chandra”, under Section 144 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, whereby the learned Principal Judge has directed the revisionist to pay a sum of Rs. 5,000/- per month to the respondent-wife towards interim maintenance with effect from the date of the application, i.e., 16.12.2024.
3. Learned counsel for the revisionist submits that the revisionist is willing and ready to keep the respondent-wife with him.
4. Per contra, learned counsel for the respondent submits that the learned Family Court has rightly exercised the jurisdiction vested in it under Section 144 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, and has awarded only a modest amount of Rs. 5,000/- per month as interim maintenance in favour of the respondent- wife. It is further submitted that despite the impugned order, the revisionist has failed to pay the said amount.
5. The learned Principal Judge, on the basis of UKHC010183762025
2026:UHC:5623 the documentary evidence placed on record, particularly the appointment letter, salary certificate, bank statements and other supporting documents, has recorded a categorical finding that the revisionist's monthly income is Rs. 21,000/-. The learned Court observed that the documentary evidence clearly establishes that the revisionist was drawing a gross monthly salary of Rs. 21,000/-, and, after considering the material available on record, granted interim maintenance of Rs. 5,000/- per month to the respondent-wife.
6. In view of the aforesaid discussion, this Court is of the considered opinion that the order dated 23.08.2025 passed by the learned Principal Judge, Family Court, Haldwani, District Nainital is well reasoned, based on the material available on record, and does not suffer from any illegality, perversity or jurisdictional error warranting interference by this Court in exercise of its revisional jurisdiction.
7. Accordingly, the Criminal Revision, being devoid of merit, is hereby dismissed.
