Section 117
Facility Of Visit To Be Provided
(1) In cases where matrimonial
relationship is extinguished or the mother or father are living
separately in accordance with law, the minor shall be allowed to
visit, from time to time, the father if he or she is living under the
mother’s custody and the mother if he or she is living under the
father’s custody, or with the consent of the mother and father, to
stay with either of them for some time.
Provided that if it appears that the interest of the minor is
likely to be prejudiced in availing the facility of such visit or stay,
the court may issue an order prohibiting such visit or stay.
(2) The frequency of visit to, or the period of stay with, the
father or the mother, as the case may be, pursuant to sub-section
(1), shall be as fixed by the concerned mother and father and, in the
absence of such fixation, shall be as ordered by the court.
(3) If a minor is living with his father or mother pursuant
to this Section, the father or mother taking the custody of the minor
shall take care of and maintain him or her in accordance with subsection
(2) of Section 114.
