Act, P.S.- Narsaina, District- Bulandshahar with an alternative prayer to stay the further proceedings of the above mentioned case.
Learned Counsel for the applicant submits that it is a matrimonial dispute, the applicant is the husband of Sm. Poonam opposite party no. 2, in the present application. Learned counsel for the applicants submits that there is every likelihood of settlement of dispute between the parties amicably if the matter is referred to Mediation Centre.
In view of the aforesaid as the dispute appears to be of matrimonial nature, I am of the view that an attempt should be made for reconciliation between the parties.
The matter on the request of learned counsel for the applicants is, therefore, referred to the Mediation Centre at Civil Court, Bulandshahar.
The matter is, therefore, with the consent of the learned counsel for the applicants, referred to the Mediation Centre, Bulandshahar for which, the applicant (husband) shall deposit a sum of Rs. 10,000/- (Rs. Ten thousand) within 15 days from today before the Mediation Centre, out of which Rs. 8,000/-( Rs. eight thousand) shall be paid to Smt. Poonam opposite party no. 2 on her first appearance before Mediation Centre towards her expenses for attending mediation sessions. The balance amount of Rs. 2,000/- shall be deposited in the Mediation Centre, Bulandshahar. The Mediation Centre is directed to take consent from the wife by issuing notice to her in which a specific date shall be mention for appearance before the Mediation Centre for the purpose.
The applicants are directed to submit a copy of this order in the Mediation Centre, Civil Court, Bulandshahar within fifteen days from today.
If, in any case, mediation fails, trial court will proceed with the case according to law.
Considering the nature of offences, the liability of the husband towards his wife cannot be ignored. Therefore, the prayer to the extent on behalf of applicant namely, Sachin Rathore (husband) in this application is hereby refused.
