IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CR. WJC No.964 of 2010 BIPIN PASWAN Versus STATE OF BIHAR & ANR ----------- 2 04.03.2011 Heard learned counsels for the petitioner and the State. The grievance of the petitioner is that his child was under the custody of his mother while the petitioner was in jail, however after coming out of the jail he is entitled to have the custody of the child as per law. In this writ application the petitioner has prayed that the custody of the child be given to him. Learned counsel for the State submits that the claim of the petitioner can not be allowed in a writ proceeding and if the petitioner is so desirous he ought to have taken the appropriate recourse of law under the provisions of the Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act. Considering the submissions of the parties, I am not inclined to interfere into the matter. However, it will be open for the petitioner to take the appropriate recourse of law as provided under the law. The writ application accordingly stands disposed of. Manish/- ( Shailesh Kumar Sinha,J.)
