Shri. Krishna Bahadur Pradhan Vs. Smti. Tikamaya Newar

Court: Guwahati

Decided on: Apr-07-1986

K. Lahiri, J.1. This revision is directed against an order dated 5-8-85 passed by the Sessions Judge, Sonitpur at Tezpur in Criminal Motion No. 121(D-2)84 whereby learned Judge having set aside the order of the Magistrate has awarded maintenance to the wife and children of the petitioner under Section 125 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 'the Code' for short.2. It is a tragic story. Such tragedies are happening everywhere and almost daily. Smt. Tikamaya, the opposite party married the petitioner following the rites of Hindu Marriage. The husband promised before Almighty witnessed by the sacred fire (Homa) that he would share her sorrows, anxieties and care until death. He promised to share bread with her. The sacred promises, it seems are made to be breached. In the majority of cases it is trifle simple to find the guilty species. The stronger, the powerful, the Gods on earth are mostly found betraying the trust reposed on them by the soft hearted maidens. In most of the cases the v...

Case No. 333/84 under Section 138 of 'the Code' is invalid, illegal and liable to be set aside? If appropriate procedure has not been followed should the entire proceeding be quashed or it should be allowed to continue from the stage where the learned Magistrate committed the error of law?2. This is a proceeding under Section 133 of 'the Code'. The applicants (opposite party) herein were interested to see trial the general public get adequate water supply from the rivulet named 'Gogola Mornoi'. It appears that the rivulet is the fountain head of water supply to many villag...
