Indian High Courts Rule on Child Custody in Cases of Parental Remarriage and Relocation
Two Indian High Courts ruled on child custody disputes involving parents who remarried or relocated. The Chhattisgarh High Court granted custody of an eight-year-old boy to his father, noting the child's preference and proper care by the father and stepmother, while maintaining the mother's visitation rights. Meanwhile, the Karnataka High Court allowed a father overnight custody of his daughter despite the mother's job transfer to another state, finding the child comfortable with both parents and rejecting restrictions to digital contact only.
