It is unfortunate that even after 50 years of the State Re-organisation on the basis of language and nearly 45 years after the passing of State Official Languages Act, 1961, the State still relies on English language for issuing simple notifications. It only shows the lack of will on the part of the Government in implementing the legislative mandate and the aspirations of the people of the State. Even the notifications issued by the Departmental heads continue to be in English contrary to the legislative intent. The Government is not sincere in implementing the provisions of the Act. The Government should take steps to ensure that this Act is implemented in letter and spirit throughout the State of Karnataka and Kannada shall be the language for the official purposes of the State. If only an attempt is made to issue such notifications in Kannada language, these glaring mistakes could be avoided and the purpose of the enactment is achieved and the State reorganisation based on language would have a meaning.

According to this Court, the Family Court has committed an error in not considering the income of the respondent. The amount of Rs. 9.00 lakhs received by the respondent from her employer has to be treated as an income and it was the duty of the Trial Court to consider the probable interest which may be accrued on the retirement benefit if the same is invested in any Nationalised Bank or in any other Institution. After calculating the interest which would be accrued on Rs. 9.00 lakhs and if any pension is being received by the respondent and also taking into consideration the income of the petitioner and the probable amount that may be required for the maintenance of respondent and considering the status of the parties, the Family Court has to award interim maintenance.

No. 26/1963].Sections 2,4 & 5: [N.Kumar, J] Kannada as the official Language of the State Held, The Karnataka Official Language Act, 1963 was enacted to provide for the adoption of Kannada as the language to be used for the official purposes of the State and for continuance of the use of English for transaction of business of the State Legislature. It is unfortunate that even after 50 years of the State Re-organisation on the basis of language and nearly 45 years after the passing of State Official Languages Act, 1961, the State still relies on English language for issuing simple notifications. It only shows the lack of will on the part of the Government in implementing the legislative mandate and the aspirations of the people of the State. Even the notifications issued by the Departmental heads continue to be in English contrary to the legislative intent. The Government is not sincere in implementing the provisions of the Act. The Government should take steps to ensure that this Act is implemented in letter and spirit throughout the State of Karnataka and Kannada shall be the language for the official purposes of the State. If only an attempt is made to issue such notifications in Kannada language, these glaring mistakes could be avoided and the purpose of the enactment is achieved and the State reorganisation based on language would have a meaning. In spite of this enactment, if still the Departmental heads continue to have official business in English language, action has to be taken against such persons.

No. 726/2001 on the file of Family Court at Bangalore for grant of divorce and to award a maintenance of Rs. 10,000/- per month for the rest of her life. The petitioner is working as Deputy Commissioner of Commercial Taxes. The respondent was working in a Bank and now she has obtained voluntary retirement. In the proceedings before the Family Court, the respondent filed an application under Section 24 of the Hindu Marriage Act requesting the Court to direct the petitioner herein to pay a maintenance of Rs. 7,500/- per month contending that her husband is getting more than Rs. 20,000/- as salary per month and that she is not in a position to maintain herself and that she cannot be a burden to her father. The petitioner-husband contended that the respondent-wife has received a retirement benefit of Rs. 9,00,000/- (Rs. Nine Lakhs), therefore, she is not entitled to claim a separate maintenance. The respondent further contended that out of the retirement benefits, she has purchases a site and constructing house for her shelter. Therefore, the retirement benefits cannot be considered as an income.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">2. The Trial Court after considering the grounds urged by both the parties held that the respondent-wife is required to construct a residential house, therefore the retirement benefits received by her cannot be taken into account while calculating the income of the parties. Accordingly, the Trial Court has directed the petitioner-husband to pay a monthly maintenance of Rs. 4,000/-. This order is called in question in this Petition.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">3. I have heard the Counsel for both the parties.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">4. The only point to be considered by this Court in this Writ Petition is whether the retirement benefits received by the respondent is required to be considered while directing the petitioner to pay the interim maintenance or whether the retirement benefits has to be treated as an income white awarding interim maintenance under Section 24 of the Hindu Marriage Act.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">5. The facts in this case are not in dispute. It is not in dispute that the respondent was working in Bank and has received a sum of Rs. 9.00 lakhs after taking voluntary retirement. According to the respondent she has made arrangement to purchase a site at a cost of Rs. 5.00 lakhs with an intention to construct a residential house for her use. The Trial Court considering the statement made by the respondent without taking into consideration the amount received by the respondent under the voluntary retirement scheme, has directed the petitioner to pay interim maintenance at the rate of Rs. 4,000/- per month.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">6. According to this Court, the Family Court has committed an error in not considering the income of the respondent. The amount of Rs. 9.00 lakhs received by the respondent from her employer has to be treated as an income and it was the duty of the Trial Court to consider the probable interest which may be accrued on the retirement benefit if the same is invested in any Nationalised Bank or in any other Institution. After calculating the interest which would be accrued on Rs. 9.00 lakhs and if any pension is being received by the respondent and also taking into consideration the income of the petitioner and the probable amount that may be required for the maintenance of respondent and considering the status of the parties, the Family Court has to award interim maintenance.
