My 2-year-old son and I have been living with my parents for almost a year. My husband is currently in Canada. If we were to get divorced, is there any chance he could get custody of our son?

Under Indian law, the child’s welfare is paramount in custody decisions. As your son has been living with you and your parents for almost a year, a strong case for your continued custody could be made. However, your husband could still pursue custody, and the court would consider factors like his ability to provide care and the child’s relationship with him.
