Dear Querist.

Greetings!!

The Court will appoint you as the Guardian on two counts: 1. she is a minor and too young and requires mother care 2. she is suffering from bronchitis. Your husband will just get visitation rights. Please have all your cases started and consolidated once you have decided to separate and be strategic immediately there after. IF YOU ARE NOT PREPARED, THEN TALK IT OUT WITH HIM AND PATCH UP.

Yes, it is most probable that the child will remain with you only as Mr Rajiv has rightly observed.

You must go ahead with the legal resources available with you. Threats of custody by your husband should not stop you from claiming your rights.
