C.R. No.46 of 2006 (O&M) -1- IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.R. No.46 of 2006 (O&M) Date of Decision: 21.08.2009 Manjit Singh and others .....Petitioners Versus Gurmit Kaur and others ...Respondents Present: Mr. K.L. Suneja, Advocate for the petitioners. Mr. A.D.S. Sukhija, Advocate for respondent Nos.1 to 4. CORAM:HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE K. KANNAN 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment ? No 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not ? No 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? No -.- K. KANNAN J. (ORAL) 1. The revision challenges the order passed in an application for custody of the minor where by an interim direction, the Court below directed that the child shall be produced in Court on the 15th day of every month for the maternal grandmother to spend two hours. The father is the revision petitioner complaining that such meeting will cause enormous hardship to the child. It is also his contention that the child has been studying well and it will spoil the child's study. It is obvious that the father carries a baggage of woes against his mother-in-law but in my view, the maternal grandmother's filiality to the grand child could never be doubted for whatever differences that a father may have, the child shall know at least the warmth of love which she can receive from her maternal grandmother. No serious C.R. No.46 of 2006 (O&M) -2- hardship could arise allowing the grandmother to meet the child in Court and that too only for a period of two hours, as ordered by the court below. 2. Keeping in mind that the child shall not suffer any disruption to her studies, the only modification that shall be made shall be that the child would meet her maternal grandmother once in a month on 2nd Saturday at the Court premises. 3. The civil revision is disposed of in the above terms. (K. KANNAN) JUDGE August 21, 2009 Pankaj*
