Being a minor, s/he is incompetant to contract vis-a-vis deposition of affidavit.

may not make an affidavit, but can give evidence subject to various safeguards.

See S. Amutha vs C. manivanna Bhupathy for more.

A minor is not eligible to depose as affidavit, what is the actual issue?, come out with the details if you want a proper opinion.
