Chandigarh, May 22 -- The court of judicial magistrate (First Class) Navjot Kaur has ordered one of the sons of an 84-year-old bedridden woman to pay maintenance charges to the tune of Rs.11.4 lakh which have not been paid for the last six years. The woman, who has been fighting it out in court over maintenance against her estranged son since 2019 through her other son, Vineet Gulati, her Special Power of Attorney (SPA) holder, had filed an execution application in court. The complainant, Santosh Gulati, a resident of Sector 35, filed a case under various sections of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005, against her husband Lalit Gulati and one son Sandeep Gulati, whom she accused of torturing and harassing her. She stated that her husband is a retired airman of the Indian Air Force, and she has three children. She added that her husband was an alcoholic and her son, Sandeep, tried to evict her from the house to deny her share in property as she used to stay on the ground floor. In their response, Lalit and Sandeep stated that the petition was filed at the instance of Vineet, who has an evil eye on her property. The court ruled, "As per statement of the SPA holder Vineet, the petitioner's husband Lalit and son Sandeep are directed to pay the outstanding amount considering the old age and medical history of the complainant, failing which coercive steps against Sandeep will be adopted." Even after the court pronounced the order in complainant's favour in 2023, the maintenance was still not paid by Sandeep, following which an execution application was filed. Both parties went into appeals, which were decided in January. The court, while deciding two appeals, ordered that the trial court had righty granted the maintenance to the tune of Rs.30,000 per month to the petitioner. It, however, modified the order passed in 2023 and directed Sandeep and Lalit to pay Rs.20,000 and Rs.10,000 every month, respectively. This maintenance was to be provided from the date of filing application, which was in 2019....
