Brief Facts:
This appeal was filled against the verdict of High Court. A woman filled an application under section 125 Cr.P.C. against the husband for maintenance of herself and her 3 children. Judicial Magistrate of Rewari dismissed the appeal of two children but 3rd child whose name is Abhilasha accepted her appeal of maintenance because at that time she was a minor , Judicial Magistrate limited her maintenance until she attains the majority under section 125 of Cr.P.C.

Application of criminal revision filled in session court  by all 4 applicants , on 17th February 2011 dismissed , Learned Additional Sessions Judge held that as per provision of Section 125 Cr.P.C., the children, who had attained majority are entitled to maintenance, if by reason of any physical or mental abnormality or injury, they are unable to maintain themselves.

Learned Additional Sessions Judge also held that the revisionist No.4 (i.e. appellant, Abhilasha) is not suffering from any physical, mental abnormality or injury, therefore, she is entitled to maintenance only till 26.04.2005 i.e., till she attains majority.
