- (1.)This revision petition under Section 397/401 of Cr.P.C. has been preferred by the petitioner being aggrieved by the order dated 28.06.2019, in MJC No. 400/2017, passed by Principal Judge, Family Court Bhopal whereby the learned Principal Judge directed the petitioner to pay the interim maintenance of Rs. 6250/- per month to the respondent No. 1 and Rs. 3500/- to respondent No.2. from the date of filing the application.
(2.)Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the order passed by the learned Family Court is bad in law and deserves to be set aside. He submits that without going through the evidence, the Family Court has decided the monthly income of the petitioner in higher side.

The learned Family Court has also not considered the fact that the petitioner got a his job from compassionate appointment and he has burden of his entire family. He further submits that his siblings are dependent in his income as they are studying. The petitioner is also bearing expenses of medical treatment of his old mother.

He further submits that the petitioner is earning of Rs. 60,000/- per month whereas the respondent No.1 has no employment and depends on her parents. The respondent No.2 is studying and her education expenses are being borne by parents of Respondent No.1. with the aforesaid, he prays for dismissal of this revision petition.
