taken up for consideration whereby the appellant
seeks enhancement of maintenance pendente lite
from Rs.5,000/- per month to Rs.15,000/- per
month on the ground that the appellant has to
meet out the expenses of children education, rent
and other requirements.
Earlier by order dated 23.01.2014 taking
into consideration uncontroverted statement that
the respondent earns Rs.20,000/- per month, an
amount of Rs.5,000/- per month was fixed

he has no extra source of income than what was
adjudged in the year 2014. It is also urged that
the decree of divorce was granted on the proven
fact of the appellant having living an adulterous
life with one Bhure.

Evidently, the appellant has failed to
disclose the income earned by the respondent.
The averment that he is dependent on his
brothers is also not controverted by the
appellant.
In this fact situation, the appellant is not
entitled for enhanced amount towards
maintenance.
Consequently, application [I.A.No.2927/16]
fails and is dismissed.
