Dear Sir/Madam
I am 30 years old. I have got married in March 2013. This is our love marriage with both family orders. My wife hates her parents for their personal issues. She never wants to go her parent’s house. But I insist her to go for social status. After 3 months our marriage I have lost my job for closing of my company. About 1 year I didn’t told in our family about my jobless situation. But tried to continue finance for my conjugal life with help of friends. After that my wife becomes pregnant. I have taken good care of her about 7 months. Then I insist her to go her father’s house because I have got a job. She agrees to go to her father’s house in her 7 months of pregnancy. When she gone her father’s house after some week she fully changed. She told her parents everything about my job and last 1 year story. Her mother changed her mind. Now my daughter’s age is 5 months. Now we separate from last two weeks. Because she called my parents for mutual understanding but they insult my parents very badly. I am trying to contact with several times over phone but she didn’t pick my or my parents phone call. Her father’s friend threats me by phone. I think she changed her mind. She is now a school teacher when my daughter only 2 months. She feeds her by feeder when she went school and this incident was unknown to me. Her mother is above 65 years old woman. She didn’t take good care of my child because she can’t move properly. Her father is very rich and he assures my wife, you will get 1flat, lot of money. So don’t think about your own family, now your duty is just your job we will manage your child. I am very anxious for child. I want my child. All these matters are true. Please help me what should I do ?

Dear
You are the legal guardian of your 7 months daughter while the mother of the child may have custody of the child. After/ before divorce you have little chance to get the custody of your daughter as she's only 7 months old.
What you can do is -apply to the family court for visitation order that is court will decide times and days when you may meet your daughter. To get custody of your child you have to wait till her puberty or if the mother remarries or the mother has severe sickness or if she lives an immoral life or if the child is not safe with the mother for other reasons that the court may think proper then the court may pass custody order in favour of you.
Thanks for your question and if you need further assistance don't hesitate to ask further questions here.
