The Court also stated that the lower court had failed to consider the fact that the respondent was not looking after the children, but had left them at his sister’s house. It was stated that there was no reason for this when the mother of the children was capable of providing a decent life to them.
“When the mother of the minor children is also capable of providing a better and decent living to the children as she is working as a Head Constable in Police Department and drawing a decent salary, there is no reason, whatsoever, to allow the children to be brought up by the sister of the respondent/father,” the order recorded.
