@Alpesh,
1. The District Judge of the residence of minor.
2. Yes, you will have to be present.
3. The minor is entitled for maintenance.
4. You are mother or father, you did not mention. Interest of the minor is to be protected by court.

1. As a father you may move petition for custody of minor with an interim application for visitation. It is your right and court shall not deny, however, it is depending upon the interest of minor.
2. The court is not bound to proceed in the absence of applicant and cannot compel complainant/applicant to attend the proceedings u/s 125 Cr. P C.
It is liable to be dismissed, if the applicant do not appear on the date fixed, request your lawyer to insist/pray the court accordingly.
How the court can fix the case for your evidence without closing the evidence of the applicant (your wife)? You are misinformed, recheck with your lawyer.
3. Similarly the accused shall be discharged in the case u/s 498A IPC, if the complainant do not appear.
4. You are mixing up four queries in one go, put them separately to avoid any confusion/the FREE expert's advise.

Alpesh,
1. The District Judge OR FAMILY COURT of the residence of minor.IF fc EXIST, , dc CANNOT ENTERTAIN/ DECIDE CHILD VISIT/ CUSTODY.
2.you will have to be present, ON FEW DATES.
3. The minor is entitled for maintenance, ONLY IF COUNTER CLAIMED BY WIFE.
4. YOU R FATHER: Interest of the minor is to be protected by court.yOU HV TO PROVE U CAN LOOK AFTER BABY BETTER/ IN RESPECT OF BABY'S HEALTH, EDUCATION, AND DEVELOPMENT ETC.
HOWEVER VISITING WILL BE ALLOWED TO FATHER, AND CUSTODY TO MOTHER IN 99% CASES.

You are legally bound to pay maintainence to your child
You can pray before the court for child custody in an appropriate manner showing bonafide causes.
