further stated that when she was on maternity leave and on the 11th day after the birth of the child, the appellant came to Angalakuduru, quarrelled with the respondent and forced to go along with the child to his parents’ house, Repalle and reside there. Then, the respondent went to Repalle within 20 days after the birth of the child. The petitioner used to come Repalle once in a week or overnight and whenever he visited, he along his parents used to ill-treat the respondent and abuse her with false allegations that they received some letters from unknown persons with regard to the conduct of the respondent. But when the respondent asked them to show those letters, they replied that they destroyed those letters. Further they demanded the respondent for bringing additional dowry from her parents. But the respondent expressed her inability to comply with their demand. They further used to coerce the respondent to resign her job and reside at Repalle for which the respondent did not agree. Therefore, the respondent had no other go except to leave the appellant’s house and joined her duty on 13-062001. She further stated that since the salary of the appellant is hardly sufficient for maintenance, it is not possible for her to resign the job. At the time of respondent leaving to Repalle, all the valuables belonging to her were lying with the appellant only. It is true that she did not give reply to the legal notice issued by the appellant since the said notice was issued with all false allegations. After filing the present petition also, the appellant gave a false complaint against the respondent to the Repalle police station. The appellant filed this petition only to escape from his liability to pay the separate maintenance to the respondent and his child. Therefore, under the above facts and circumstances, it is not safe for the respondent to live together with the appellant. Hence, prayed to dismiss the petition.
