sir/Madam. i had married under Muslim laws in 2017 and raised a female child but got divorced in 2020 made compromise under which it was decided that the custody of child will be given to me (father of minor) at the time mother remarriage. Mother remarriage 3 months ago and left the child with her brother (minor's maternal uncle) now they are totally refusing for giving me custody.

Hi, 

Since you are the father, you have the complete rights on the child. File  Guards and Wardian  petiton in court for the custody of the child

If you can prove that you are the parent (Birth Certificate having your name as father or any Certificate accepted by court which proves that you are father) of the child, then yes, Else you can't. Court need proof.
