The High Court observed that the mother was moving to New Zealand for better job opportunities. In this background, the Court opined that her decision to move abroad should not be held against her to deny child custody.
“If the relocation of the appellant (mother) is for better fortune, that cannot hold against her from claiming custody, provided, that the child’s welfare is also protected. The child should recognise his biological parents and have every right to grow under their care and protection,” the Court said.
