This is an application, inter alia, praying for expeditious disposal of the Guardianship Case No. 01 of 2024 pending before the learned Judge, Family Court, South Andaman at Port Blair. 2.

Noting that the petitioner claims to be the only natural guardian of his minor daughter and his wife having expired on 19.09.2023 and also considering the age of the minor, I am of the view that the present proceedings being Guardianship Case No. 1 of 2024 should be heard out and disposed of expeditiously, preferably within a period of six months from the date of communication of this order. 4. The petitioner is directed to serve a copy of this application on the opposite party along with this order and to intimate the factum of service thereof to the learned Court. 5.
