3.            That some time after the marriage, the relation between the parties became strained.
However, plaintiff no. 1 tolerated obnoxious (offensive) treatment meted out to plaintiff

defendant did not care for that and continued his obnoxious treatment towards the
plaintiff and eventually turned out the plaintiff from his house where after the plaintiff

4.            That the defendant has completely neglected plaintiffs and has completely failed to pay

very high social status. She claims a sum of Rs. 10,000/- per month as her maintenance
allowance. Plaintiff no. 2 claims a sum of Rs. 5,000/- per month as his maintenance
allowance.

6.            That the defendant was requested to pay the maintenance allowance to the plaintiff at the
aforesaid rates but he was flatly refused to pay the same. Hence this suit.
7.            That the cause of action arose in favour of the plaintiff against the defendant as this
refusal to pay the maintenance to the plaintiffs.
