Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the interim order of the Karnataka High Court regarding child custody, mandating that the existing arrangement by the Family Court shall continue, with specific visitation and exchange points. The Court prohibited both parents from taking the child out of the country without permission and from initiating any new litigation related to the custody dispute without the High Court's consent. Additionally, the Court directed the Family Court to expedite the divorce proceedings and other pending cases within six months, ensuring the child's welfare and minimizing parental interference with the school.
