My son is 4 years old, and we’ve been living apart for a year and a half. My wife took him when he was 2 years old, but now he keeps asking to come live with me. He’s very clear about wanting to be with me and is insistent. Could I get custody of him based solely on his strong desire to live with me?

Indian law prioritizes the child’s well-being, and a child’s desire can be considered in custody decisions. However, it’s not the sole deciding factor. Courts assess various factors including the child’s age, maturity, relationship with both parents, and overall welfare to determine custody arrangements.
