We questioned and asked Sheetal that since she has attained the age of majority what is her desire and where she desires to stay. She replied that she desires to go along with Vilasbai Narayan Hasure who is respondent no.2 in the present petition. In short, Sheetal expressed her desire to go along with all the respondents and stay along with them. She refused to go along with her father and uncle who are present in Court being apprehensive of the fact that they may compel her to terminate the pregnancy. She has also expressed a decision to go along with respondents and more specifically with respondent no.2. Such decision has been taken by her (Sheetal) on her own accord and without any influence and/or by pressure from any one. We also find that it is her voluntary decision and, therefore, we set her at liberty to go and reside as per her own will and desire which she has expressed as stated above. 3.
