Harshita Bhasin vs State Of W.B & Ors

The Supreme Court addressed a custody dispute under the Guardian and Wards Act, 1890, emphasizing that interim orders regarding custody and visitation rights do not determine the final rights of the parties. The Court upheld the High Court's interim arrangement allowing visitation rights to the mother while directing the lower court to expedite the final resolution of the guardianship petition. The Court clarified that modifications to visitation orders should not interfere with existing interim arrangements confirmed by higher courts.
