Janak Dulari vs Narain Dass on 8 September, 1958

11. The learned counsel for the appellant also sought to derive support from Janak Dulari's case AIR 1959 Punj 50 (supra) decided by this Court. He has stated that just as the jurisdiction of Gurdaspur Court was barred even though the husband visited that place for three days for the purpose of bringing about reconciliation the jurisdiction of the Courts at Chandigarh should also be barred because the parties stayed there for about 4 days between May 13 and May 17, 1967. I am afraid, this is not the correct approach. In that case the Court held that the visit of the husband to Gurdaspur was of casual nature. In the instant case., Chandigarh was the home and normal abode of the respondent. The appellant as a Hindu wife was expected to live with him.

In that case the wife had filed a petition for the grant of maintenance-allowance in a court at Shahjahanpur. The husband was living at Peshawar and there was no evidence that he ever lived at Shahjahandpur, though his family originally did come from that place. On these facts, it was held that the Court at Shahjahanpur had no jurisdiction to entertain the petition. It may also be noticed that the pharseology used in Section 488 of the Code of Criminal Procedure is entirely different Section 488(8) of the said Code runs as follows:
