3. The petitioner is a Computer Operator. As per Ex.R-1 certificate issued by the School Authorities, he was being paid Rs.3,500/- per month as Computer Operator. The lower court granted maintenance of Rs.1,000/- per month to the divorced wife and Rs.3,500/- per month to the minor child, totaling Rs.4,500/- per month. This Court cannot believe that income of the petitioner is only Rs.3,500/- per month. It only shows that he was working part time in the school for Rs.3,500/- per month. If he was getting only that amount, he would not have gone for marriage much less for production of a child. All the circumstances go to show that he has got other income than as Computer Operator, which the petitioner did not disclose. The petitioner is able bodied male person and he cannot evade his liability to maintain his wife and minor child. He has to undertake every type of work and earn and then maintain his wife and his minor children. Apart from salary he has got house property from which he is stated to be getting rents. Having regard to all the facts and circumstances of the case, the lower court rightly fixed the quantum of maintenance. This Court does not find any infirmity in the order passed by the lower court.
