CHILD-CUSTODY CASE Judicial system in India, UK taken for ride by mother: SC
Orissa POST
|September 18, 2025
The judicial system in India and the UK was “taken for a ride” by a woman for reasons best known to her, the Supreme Court has observed, while directing that the custody of her minor son be handed over to his father.
Deprecating the woman's conduct, a bench of Justices J K Maheshwari and Vijay Bishnoi said the case reflected a deep-rooted conflict between the woman and her husband, arising from their divergent intentions regarding staying together and raising their children in India.
It said this discord had not only strained their marital relationship but also adversely impacted their two children, one of whom is staying with the mother in the United Kingdom.
The top court said the prolonged discord of ties between the couple, who got married in November 2010, led to a further dispute on visitation over their two children.

Unempolyment rate rises to 5%
Despite the government's repeated claims of creating millions of new jobs, India's jobless rate has fluctuated in recent years. According to the Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy (CMIE), an independent think tank that produces economic and business databases for decision making and research, unemployment remains a concern, particularly among urban youth and graduates. In fact, in January 2026, the national unemployment rate edged up to 5.0 % from 4.8 % in December 2025, driven by rising joblessness in both rural (4.2 % vs. 3.9 %) and urban areas (7.0 % US. 6.7 %), according to National Statistics Office which confirm CMIE’s observations
