AMYRA DWIVEDI (MINOR) THROU HER MOTHER POOJA SHARMA DWIVEDI vs ABHINAV DWIVEDI

The Supreme Court held that the High Court's order granting limited visitation rights to the mother was inadequate and not in the best interest of the child, as established in Yashita Sahu v. State of Rajasthan (2020 AIR 577), which emphasizes that the welfare of the child is paramount. The Court reiterated that both parents should have meaningful contact with the child, and visitation rights should not be restricted to a mere two hours once a month. The Court directed a reassessment of visitation rights to ensure the child's emotional and psychological well-being is prioritized.
