The minor girl was secured and produced before this Court from Life Line Trust , Tiruppur. 3. On interaction with the minor girl, she expressed her difficulty in going with her mother. According to her, in view of the family issues, she left the house. However, she is now willing to go with her grand mother Rajeshwari and grand father Ravindrakumar, and not with her mother. 4. The minor appears to be capable of understanding the nature of the proceedings, and is sufficiently mature, though legally a minor, to express a considered preference. Having taken note of her willingness and keeping in mind her welfare, we are of the view that it would be appropriate to permit the minor to go with her grandparents. 5. Accordingly, the minor girl Kanishka is permitted to go and reside with her grandmother Rajeshwari and grandfather Ravindrakumar. 3 of 6 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis HCP No. 2244 of 2025 6.
