Case of the petitioner is that the petitioner is husband of respondent No.1. The respondent No.1 filed a petition under Section 125 Cr.P.C., seeking to grant maintenance of Rs.29000/- per month from the petitioner herein and the learned trial Court after considering material and evidence on record, granted maintenance of Rs.15,000/- per month to the 1st respondent from the date of filing of the petition. Challenging the said order, the petitioner/respondent preferred the present revision. 3. As could be seen from the impugned order, the petitioner herein is working as Junior Assistant in Z.P.Boys High School, Khajipeta and getting gross salary of Rs.69,827/- and after deductions, his net salary is Rs.51,572/- and in support of the same the respondent No.1 got marked Ex.A15 original salary certificate. The petitioner herein during his evidence in the cross- examination, he admitted the said fact. The learned trial Court after examining the facts and upon appreciation of the evidence on record, in a right 3 perspective granted maintenance as stated above and hence, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the order passed by the trial Court. 4. Accordingly, the Criminal Revision Case is dismissed. As a sequel thereto, the miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending shall stand closed. ________________________________________ Dr. JUSTICE VENKATA JYOTHIRMAI PRATAPA Date: 17.02.2026 ARB 4 THE HONOURABLE DR JUSTICE VENKATA JYOTHIRMAI PRATAPA CRIMINAL REVISION CASE NO: 1165/2023 Date: 17.02.2026 ARB
