Supreme court rejects dna Test Petition..!?

A petition was recently filed in the supreme Court. The petitioner's request is that he believes that he is the child of a certain person. A young man filed a petition to determine whether he was his father through a dna test. The supreme court said no to his request. The petition was a privacy matter involving a third party and held that a dna test could not be conducted without his consent. The petition was filed by a young man from Kerala. In it, he said that a woman from kochi, Kerala, got married in 1989. A daughter was born in 1991. She had a son in 2001. She separated from her husband in 2003. They were divorced in 2006. Immediately after the divorce was granted, she approached the kochi Municipal authorities and requested them to change the father's name on her son's birth certificate. She claimed that she was in an extramarital affair with her husband and that the child born from that affair was her son.
In 2007, a local court ordered a third party to conduct a dna test on the child. Responding to this, the third party approached the High Court. The high court has said that if it is proven that the couple was not together at the time of the child's conception, it will order a third person to take a dna test. It has been said that if the couple were together, then even a child born within 280 days of divorce would be the legitimate child of the father. Meanwhile, in 2015, her son filed a petition seeking paternity leave from a third person. He stated that he had undergone several surgeries. His mother could not afford his medical expenses. He was not getting any help from his legal father for his medical expenses. He said that the family court ruled in favor of the son. The third person approached the supreme court after it was clarified that paternity should be paid. Even if the woman and the third person were in contact at the time of the child's conception, the son would be the legitimate child of the ex-husband. For this reason, the third person did not need to make any payments. The latest supreme court ruling is attracting many.
