IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Revision No. 5301 of 2010(O&M) Date of Decision: September 21, 2011. Jasdeep Singh. ...... PETITIONER(s) Versus Smt. Navneet Kaur. ...... RESPONDENT (s) CORAM:- HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RAM CHAND GUPTA Present: Mr. Sanjeev Sharma, Senior Advocate with Mr. B.R.Gupta, and Mr. J.S.Mehndiratta, Advocates, for the petitioner. Mr. Sumeet Mahajan, Senior Advocate with Mr. Ashish Aggarwal, Mr. Nilesh Bhardwaj and Mr. S.L.Bhalla, Advocates, for the respondent. ***** RAM CHAND GUPTA, J.(Oral) Petitioner has invoked supervisory jurisdiction of this Court under Article 227 of the Constitution of India against order dated 30.07.2010 passed by learned Guardian Judge, Karnal vide which earlier order dated CR No.5301 of 2010 09.01.2010 passed by learned Guardian Judge, Karnal was modified and the present petitioner was permitted to meet the child in Nirmal Kutia, Karnal from 11.00 AM to 1.00 PM. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have gone through the whole record including the impugned order passed by learned Guardian Judge, Karnal and the earlier order passed by learned Guardian Judge, Karnal. Vide earlier order dated 09.01.2010 passed by learned Guardian Judge, Karnal, petitioner was permitted to meet the child on first four Sundays of every month from 11.00 AM to 3.00 PM at Hotel Savoy Greens, Karnal. There is distant of few kilometers between court complex and Hotel Savoy Greens, Karnal. There used to be allegations levelled by both the parties against each other in not complying with the said order. Hence, learned Guardian Judge, Karnal modified the said order and it was directed that petitioner would meet the child on first and last Saturday of the month and initially child would be brought to the court by respondent herself or by any her representative as she deem fit and the child be taken to Nirmal Kutia and then petitioner would meet her from 11.00 AM to 1.00 PM at the expense of petitioner. It has been contended by learned counsel for the petitioner that though Nirmal Kutia is a religious place and however, there is no facility of any food items to be served to the child and there is no facility for the child to play there. Hence, it has been suggested that petitioner be permitted to take the child to Hotel Jewels, Karnal which is nearby the court complex. It has 2 CR No.5301 of 2010 also been contended that even visiting hours are too less for petitioner-father to meet the child as earlier he was allowed to meet the child for four hours on every Sunday. It has also been contended that earlier order was challenged by the respondent before this Court by filing Civil Revision No.1220 of 2010 and however, the pendency of said revision petition was not disclosed when the application was filed before the Guardian Judge for modifying the order. The said revision petition was later on got dismissed as withdrawn by the respondent when the impugned order was passed by learned Guardian Judge. On the other hand, it has been contended by learned counsel for the respondent that Nirmal Kutia is just opposite to the court complex and the same is religious place and is having sufficient open space and hence, there should not be any problem for petitioner to meet the child there. It has also been contended that child is aged only three years and now she goes to a playway school. Hence, it is contended that two hours are sufficient for the petitioner to meet the child. It has been brought to the notice of the court that though child is aged three years and used to go to a playway school and however, Saturday is holiday. Petitioner is father of the child. His only request is that he be given sufficient time to be spent with the child at his own expense. Hence, in my view, ends of justice would be met if the impugned order passed by learned Guardian Judge, Karnal is modified to the extent that petitioner is permitted to meet the child from 11.00 AM to 3.00 AM on three Saturdays of every month i.e. first, second and last Saturday of the month. The child would be initially brought to the court at 10.30 AM sharp as per 3 CR No.5301 of 2010 earlier order of learned Guardian Judge, Karnal by respondent herself or by any of her representatives as she deem fit and then the child would be taken to Hotel Jewels, Karnal where petitioner would meet her from 11.00 AM to 3.00 PM at the expense of petitioner. It is clarified that the child would be handed over to petitioner in the court and petitioner will also handover the child to respondent in the court. Disposed of accordingly.
