PETITION U/S 144(5) BNSS) ON BEHALF OF PETITIONER
MOST RESPECTFULLY SHOWETH,
ADD BASIC DETAILS OF PERSONAL / MARRIAGE AND SEPERTION, WHAT WHEN AND WHY THIS APPLICATION IS MADE.
1. Misrepresentation and Concealment of Facts:
The Respondent has misrepresented and concealed material facts regarding her financial status, including income, assets, and employment. As per the law, a party who comes to the court with unclean hands is not entitled to relief.
2. Desertion Without Reasonable Cause:
The Respondent has voluntarily deserted the Petitioner without any justifiable cause. The Hon’ble Courts have consistently held that a wife who leaves her matrimonial home without reasonable cause is not entitled to maintenance.
3. Self-Sufficiency:
The Respondent is earning a substantial income and is self-sufficient, thereby not entitled to maintenance under Section 125 of the CrPC. The Courts have repeatedly held that maintenance is only granted to those who are unable to maintain themselves.
4. Non-Submission of Income Affidavit:
The Respondent has failed to submit her income affidavit despite several opportunities provided by the Hon’ble Court over the past 1.5 years. This non-compliance with court orders indicates a lack of genuine need for maintenance and should lead to the dismissal of the application.
5. False Allegations:
The Respondent has made false and unsubstantiated allegations of domestic violence and cruelty, which have not been proven in any court of law. Maintenance cannot be granted based on baseless accusations.
6. No Grounds for Cruelty:
The Respondent has not provided any concrete evidence to substantiate claims of cruelty or harassment by the Petitioner. Courts have dismissed maintenance applications where allegations of cruelty have been found to be baseless.
7. Collusion and Bad Faith:
The Respondent’s application for maintenance is made in collusion with her family members to harass the Petitioner and extort money. Such applications made in bad faith are liable to be dismissed.
8. Fraudulent Marriage:
The marriage was conducted based on fraudulent representations by the Respondent, who concealed critical information. Courts have held that maintenance cannot be claimed in cases where the marriage itself was based on fraud.
9. Contradictory Statements:
The Respondent has made contradictory statements in her application and other related proceedings, which cast doubt on the credibility of her claims. The Hon’ble Court should dismiss her application based on these inconsistencies.
10. Delay in Filing:
The Respondent has unduly delayed filing the maintenance application without any valid reason. Such delay reflects a lack of genuine need and should be grounds for dismissal.
11. Adultery
The Respondent is living in Adultery or has Affair with someone else, with Valid proof of any such incident/Social Media Proofs are ground for dismissal
12. Mutual Consent (MCD)
Both Parties living separately with mutual consent or Mutual consent divorce awarded but women approach court with unclean hands, hiding facts, her petition can be dismissed with a cost.
PRAYER
In view of the aforementioned grounds, it is humbly prayed that this Hon’ble Court may kindly dismiss the Respondent’s maintenance application with costs.
