Nikah Nama whether the same are mentioned as dower or undertaking for the satisfaction of dower

Yet, another aspect of the entry of column No. 16 is also discussed in a recent judgment titled “Mst. MITHAN versus ADDITIONAL DISTRICT JUDGE, JATOI and 7 others” (2017 MLD 1101), where this Court in depth examined the validity of entry of column No. 16 envisaged in the Nikah Nama. The observation rendered by my learned brother is that after the insertion of item No.10 of amendment of Schedule of Act XXXV of 1964, all the matters relating to the Nikah Nama can only be examined and entertained by the Judge Family Court. Thus, it is settled that the Family Court has the jurisdiction to entertain and decide the matters arising out of Nikah Nama whether the same are mentioned as dower or undertaking for the satisfaction of dower
