Earlier, the Court had initially allowed the medical termination of the minor girl’s seven-month pregnancy. However, the Court was informed in the following hearing that the minor girl had delivered a child.
Thereafter, the Court directed the Child Welfare Committee to take a decision on the custody of the new born child in accordance with the Juvenile Justice Act.
The Child Welfare Committee in turn informed the Court that the newborn child was surrendered to it and that the minor girl was handed over to her uncle.
