ORDER1. Heard Shri A. P. Mundergi, Advocate for the petitioner; and Shri Naik for respondent No. 1. 2. The petition is filed by the wife against the order of the IInd Additional Sessions Judge Kolhapur dated 17-2-1995 by which the revision filed by the respondent-husband was allowed and order of the Magistrate dated 15-10-1994 granting maintenance of Rs. 150/- to the petitioner wife was set aside. 3. The Judicial Magistrate F.C. has accepted the case of the wife and granted maintenance at Rs. 150/- per month from 5-1-1993. The Additional Sessions Judge set aside this order only on the ground that respondent was admittedly a blind person and was not able bodily and as such was not capable of maintaining his wife and children. 4. On the fact of it, this finding is wrong because S. 125 of Cr.P.C. nowhere lays down that only an able bodied husband will be bound to maintain his wife. Section 125 speaks of the inability of the wife to maintain herself and does not speak about the physical ca...
