Hi In this case you can file declaratory suit for legitimacy of child, you can also claim maintenance for you and for your child You can also claim restitution through family court if you are willing to stay with him

Dear queriest, as per your query you have mentioned about the fact that you are seeking rights towards your illegitimate child, the father is bound to maintain his illegitimate son during the period of his minority, irrespective of the fact whether he had any property or not.
