My brother, a Buddhist like us, has a four-year-old son with a woman they were not officially married to. She was a widow with a history of troubling her previous husband, who sadly took his own life. She’s receiving his pension and used her connection to our family, which is well-respected in our community, for financial and social benefits. Their relationship has become strained, and due to her lack of education and background, she wouldn’t be able to provide the same opportunities for the child as we could. We’ve tried to reconcile, but it hasn’t worked. How can we legally secure custody of the boy, and what are our chances of winning?
Best Answer
Indian law prioritizes the child’s best interests in custody cases. You can file a custody petition, emphasizing the child’s well-being and providing evidence of his mother’s lack of capacity to provide adequate care and opportunities. Your chances of winning depend on the evidence presented and the court’s assessment of the child’s best interests.
