What is the dispute? There must be some reason behind her present conduct of not allowing you to see the child.

She is your wife. SO go and talk to her to resolve the dispute. Through mutual talk and negotiations most of the disputes can be resolved amicably.

Otherwise you can file a suit for custody of the child.

Dear Client,

File application in family court for custody of child. Child is below 5 years of age, so court will grant visitation rights.

Dear Sir,

 

- Please clarify the state of your case i.e Divorce taken or it is just normal separation without Court decree.

- The custodial parent denies you, your right to visit the child, this will result in “frustration of visitation” and you can approach to Court on same. 

- Be informed under Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act, 1956, section 13 of the same act lays down that right of the father to be a guardian of the minor is subordinate to the welfare of the child.

- You can file petition at Family Court for visitation rights, court may pass a visitation order in favor of the noncustodial parent, establishing the visiting time and place 

- Make sure your visitation rights are explicitly stated in a document with no ambiguous terms.

Approach the Court making a request for grant of interim custody and seek visitation right. 

Alternatively, you can approach the High Court by way of filing a habeas corpus writ petition/

Dear Sir,

It is better, legally you can file RCR (restoration of conjugal rights) petition in the family court requesting the court to direct your wife to come to her matrimonial home.  And
you can also file custody of child petition in the family court, in that case court will immediately provide visiting rights to you.

An application for visitation must be filed in the family court and it will order to your wife. Uou must also file a section 9 application so that the court may send her back to you in case she has been living away without any cause.

1. You have to file a petition for child custody in the court of guardianship judge to seek custody of your child.

2. The least that you will get is visitation rights.

3. The petition has to be filed in the court within whose jurisdiction the child is residing.

You can file a child custody case before the court within which jurisdiction she resides and  also file an IA seeking visitation rights to visit your child periodically as per the program you have suggested which would be an interim relief to you.

  1. As per the information mentioned in the present query, makes it clear that you have been denied a right which have been vested in you by law like in the same way it has been vested in mother of the child.
  2. So, now you can file a Writ of Habeaus corpus before the Hon’ble High Court seeking weel beingness of your child under article 226 of our Constitution seeking present of her/ his body (legal term) before the court and therein you can say pray for the visiting rights also.
  3. This is the better/ faster way to get your child’s visiting rights in comparison to an application seeking custody or visiting rights.
