In Brief
A father sought Supreme Court intervention to obtain visitation rights with his minor daughter after the High Court had denied his application. The parents had an acrimonious relationship. The Court held that no matter how estranged the parents are, a father cannot be wholly denied the right to see his daughter. It ordered supervised visitation in the Family Court premises on the third Saturday of each month for two hours, with grandparents permitted to attend, ensuring the child's safety while preserving the father's fundamental right to interaction.
