The dispute was about a wife's petition under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005, seeking maintenance and compensation from her husband. The Trial Court and Appellate Court allowed the petition, directing the husband to pay monthly maintenance of Rs.20,000 and compensation of Rs.3,00,000. The husband filed a revision petition, arguing that the orders were erroneous and that the allegations made were civil in nature and did not attract domestic violence. The wife contended that the husband had committed domestic violence by marrying another woman and refusing to take her back.
