She highlighted that the role of a judge while dealing with the family matters is not only important but also crucial. This is because the Judge has to balance the law with compassion and with the rights of the parties and in balancing all these they look not only into the provision but also the human angle to it, she added.
He emphasised the restitution of conjugal rights. She said the most difficult act which not in terms of the act but in terms of enforcement and dispensation of justice is “The Guardian and Wards Act” because the children are involved and every person and every individual who has to deal with the child has to look into the welfare of the child.Welfare of the child being paramount is the only consideration while considering the guardian and wards act, resolution of its disputes and the most important and difficult part is execution of the order.
