Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the custody dispute between Bimlendu Kumar Chatterjee and Smt. Dipa Chatterjee regarding their daughter. The Court emphasized the importance of stability for the child and upheld the previous orders of the High Court, allowing the father visitation rights but denying his request for custody. The Court reiterated that the child should not be treated as a 'shuttle-cock' and maintained the status quo established by earlier judgments, thus dismissing the appeal.
