P.C.:­ Heard Mr. E. Afonso, the learned Counsel for the Applicant/Appellant and Mr. Mahadaji Prabhu Dessai, learned Counsel for Respondent Nos.1 to 6. Respondent Nos.7 and 8 are formal parties. 2 By this application the Applicant/Appellant prays for appointment of guardian for Respondent Nos.2, 5 and 6. Mr. Afonso, the learned Counsel for the Applicant/Appellant states that Respondent Nos.2 and 6 have attained majority and, therefore, it is necessary to appoint guardian only in respect of Respondent No.5 who is still a minor. The Applicant prays that Respondent No.1 be appointed guardian of Respondent No.5 since her interests are not conflicting with the interest of Respondent No.5. The learned Counsel for Respondent Nos.1 to 6 does not dispute this fact. Accordingly the application is partly allowed. 3 Respondent No.1 is appointed guardian of Respondent No.5. Application stands disposed of. A. P. LAVANDE, J. RD.
