Kota (Rajasthan), Apr 23: Rajasthan minister Madan Dilawar on Tuesday said a uniform civil code is bound to be implemented in the country and it will not be possible for someone to "marry four women and beget 25 children", and avail the benefits of government schemes.

Addressing a press conference here, Dilawar also said that the Congress is the most corrupt party in the world.

"After this election, the UCC will be implemented in the country...the day is not far when it will not be possible for a man to marry four women and beget 25 children, and avail the benefits of government schemes claiming to be from the minority community," the state education minister said.

Lashing out at the Congress over corruption, Dilawar alleged that the party during its previous tenure at the Centre would illegally take away around Rs 25 lakh crore of the people every year.

Earlier, the total tax collected by the government was only Rs 5 lakh crore but now more than Rs 20 lakh crore is collected only through the GST, and including all taxes more than Rs 35 lakh crore is estimated to be collected, he said.

"So, the question is what happened to about Rs 25-30 lakh crore in the Congress tenure...these Congressmen would 'burp' Rs 25 lakh crore every year during their time," Dilawar alleged.

Referring to paper leak episode in the previous Congress government in Rajasthan, Dilawar alleged corers of rupees were given to former chief minister Ashok Gehlot and Govind Singh Dotasara.

"Small 'fishes' have been trapped, now 'big crocodiles' involved in the scam will be trapped...Gehlot Sahab and Dotasara Sahab will go to jail," he claimed.

Prayagraj (PTI): The Allahabad High Court has set aside a lower court order mandating a man to pay maintenance to his estranged wife, observing that she earns her living and did not reveal the true salary in her affidavit.

Justice Madan Pal Singh also allowed a criminal revision petition filed by the man, Ankit Saha.

"A perusal of the impugned judgment indicates that in the affidavit filed before the trial court, the opposite party herself admitted that she is a post-graduate and a web designer by qualification. She is working as a senior sales coordinator in a company and getting a salary of Rs 34,000 per month," the court said in the December 3 order.

"But in her cross-examination, she has admitted that she was earning Rs 36,000 per month. Such an amount for a wife who has no other liability cannot be said to be meagre; whereas the man has the responsibility of maintaining his aged parents and other social obligations," it observed.

The high court observed that the woman was not entitled to get any maintenance from her husband "as she is an earning lady and able to maintain herself".

The man's counsel argued in court that the estranged wife did not reveal the whole truth in the affidavit.

"She claimed herself to be an illiterate and unemployed woman. When the document filed by the man was shown to her before the trial court, she admitted her income during cross-examination. Thus, it is clear that she did not come before the trial court with clean hands," the counsel submitted.

The court, in its order, said, "Cases of those litigants who have no regard for the truth and those who indulge in suppressing material facts need to be thrown out of the court."

It impugned the lower court's February 17 judgment and order, passed by the principal judge of a family court in Gautam Buddh Nagar and allowed the criminal revision petition filed by the man.
