    Order

    Summary: The respondent's application for physical custody or visiting rights of his daughter was dismissed for want of jurisdiction. The court held that under Section 21 of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005, read with Section 2A, only an aggrieved woman can file such applications, and custody matters fall under the jurisdiction of the District Court, not the Magistrate's Court. However, the earlier order dated 07.08.2025 granting virtual visitation (15 minutes on first and third Sundays) will continue until the end of litigation. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
