Sk. Alauddin @ Alai Khan vs Khadiza Bibi @ Mst. Khodeja Khatun And ... on 5 December, 1990

Calcutta High Court in Alauddin @ Alai Khan v. Khadiza Bibi @ Mst.Kohedja Khatun ((1991) CrlLJ 2035) was called upon to consider the sustainability of an order of Magistrate, by which an application under S.125 Cr.P.C dismissed for default was restored. The court, relying on the decision in Jagir Kaur V Jaswant Singh (AIR 1963 SC 1521), held that proceedings for maintenance were in the nature of civil proceedings, though the criminal process is applied for the purpose of summary and speedy disposal and hence Magistrate can invoke inherent powers to recall his earlier order, if sufficient grounds are shown.
