DATED : 25TH APRIL, 2008. P.C.:- 1. In this application, the applicant-husband has prayed that he may be given permanent access to his son – Sahil. Learned counsel for the applicant-husband has submitted that the applicant-husband may be permitted to meet his son – Sahil on every Sundays. 2. Learned counsel for the respondent-wife submitted that the applicant-husband gets drunk and comes to meet his son - Sahil. She submitted that this causes mental trauma to the child. She submitted that the applicant-husband may be permitted to bring along with him AJN 2 some other members from his family. The applicant being the father, access will have to be given to him. In the circumstances of the case, we feel that the following order will meet the ends of justice. 3. The applicant-husband shall have access to his son – Sahil on alternate Sundays between 9.00 a.m. to 11.00 a.m. He shall go to the entrance of the building where the respondent-wife stays at 9.00 a.m. The applicant-husband shall pick up the child at 9.00 a.m. and bring him back at 11.00 a.m. at the entrance of the building. As far as possible, he shall take his brother, mother or any other family member with him. We expect him to be very sober when he goes to meet his son – Sahil. He shall not be under influence of drink. If the respondent-wife finds that the applicant-husband is under influence of drink, she shall not give access to child – Sahil to the applicant-husband. 4. The civil application is disposed of. [SMT. RANJANA DESAI, J.] [SMT. R.P. SONDURBALDOTA, J.]
