No, you can not child custody case here, because as per section 9 of Guardians and wards act, 1980 .. the child custody case can only be filed in the place where the child ordinarily resides. Regards, Aman Chawla

Query perused. In my considered opinion opinion the case for the custody of the child under the guardian's and wards act can be filed in the court having jurisdiction where the minor resides. For further consultancy and legal services you may contact us.
