Child Custody

@ Author

Just in short whosoever passes the test as laid in S. 17 of Guardianships and Wards Act will get custody of child is the possible outcome in all custody cases here in India and this is what is sufficient answer for your brief from me.


However, "joint / shared custody" has innumerable benefits and is a acceptable norm in Courts of Law abroad but Hon'ble Indian judiciary is slowly waking up to its benefit if properly plead keeping all three persons involved interest in neutrality in mind.


For child at such tender age, it is natural to cry and suggest to fulfill your duties as father without aggravating the current visitation equations graciously agrred by this lady and the ipsofacto lady may join you in due course keeping child best interest in view who knows!

All the best.
