JUDGMENT
Heard.
2. The learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that Ext.P5 order is not a speaking order and hence, the same cannot be sustained.
3. As per Ext.P5, the court below directed the petitioner herein to pay Rs.10,000/- towards interim maintenance to the respondent herein. However, no reason has been stated in Ext.P5 as to why so much amount was granted towards interim maintenance. Every judicial order must be a speaking order, however short it be. Since Ext.P5 is not a speaking order, the same cannot be sustained and consequently, I set aside the same.
In the result, this Original Petition stands allowed, setting aside order dated 2.2.2017 in M.P.829/2016 in O.P.(Crl.)No. 203 of 2017 -: 2 :- M.C.310/2016. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, including the submission at the Bar, I am of the view that the petitioner herein can be directed to pay Rs.6000/- (Rupees Six thousand only) per month to the respondent herein towards interim maintenance, till a final decision is taken by the court below in M.C.310/2016 and accordingly, I order so.
