2. The brief facts of the case are that a petition under Section 6 of the Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act, 1956 read with Sections 7, 8 and 10 of the Guardian and Wards Act, 1890 was instituted by the respondent claiming custody of the minor. She pleaded that the minor Satinder Pal Singh was born on 16.02.2000 out of her wedlock with Jasdev Singh who died on 06.01.2000. She became a widow at a very young age and with the consent of the parents of her late husband Jastev Singh she remarried and out of that wedlock she has two children. The case pleaded is that in order to facilitate this marriage, the custody of the minor was handed over to the grandfather Kishan Singh for a short period for which purpose agreement Ex. RW1A was executed between the parties. It is undisputed before me that Shri Kishan Singh has Singh died and now the custody of the child is with the appellant who is his great grandfathe
