Can a parent challenge a child custody arrangement after a divorce? For instance, if the mother is awarded custody after a separation, can the father seek a change in the custody order in a different court?

Yes, a parent can challenge a child custody arrangement after a divorce in India. They can petition for a change in custody if there are significant changes in circumstances, such as a change in the child’s needs or the custodial parent’s ability to care for the child. This petition must be filed in the court that originally granted custody.
