No. 366 of 2008 [2] Chandigarh, inter-alia on the ground that the petitioner alongwith minor children born out of the wed-lock is staying at Chandigarh and that in view of the provisions of Section 9 of the Act, any petition regarding guardianship of minor has to be made to District Court having jurisdiction in the place where minor ordinarily resides.
