Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the custody arrangement of a minor child following a divorce decree granted by the Family Court under the Hindu Marriage Act. The Court emphasized the need for both parents to prioritize the child's welfare and directed the Family Court to finalize custody arrangements, noting that the previous interim measures were to continue until a final decision was made. The Court held that the Family Court should expedite the divorce proceedings and ensure a workable solution for custody, thereby modifying the High Court's interim order.
