Under no condition court can grant custody of a 1 month old child to his/her father.
Arvind Singh Chauhan (Expert) 09 September 2010
No it is not only against the law but also against the nature. Have patience and apply later. You may apply for visiting rights.
Adv Archana Deshmukh (Expert) 09 September 2010
A one month old baby needs the care and attention of its mother rather than anyone else. So, the court'll never grant custody to you at this stage. As suggested by arvind you can apply for visitation rights now.
s.subramanian (Expert) 09 September 2010
The experts are perfectly right.
Prakash Langalia (Expert) 09 September 2010
you have not stated reasons for demanding custody of one month old child which justify your demand mere your wish is not legal ground. court always consider paramount welfare of minor child
M/s. Y-not legal services (Expert) 09 September 2010
Experts mr.arvind, archana, and prakash given a exact answer to you. What you are talking mr.. If you file any petition for custody of the child mean its surely wil be dismissed without numbering. If you want you can get visiting rights. More over if your affection on your child is true mean take your wife also with you. Thats only the nature of justice

I slightly differ to views expressed by all the ld. members on sole grounds that a father is not only a seed giver but a protector too and has equal rights to nurture the sapling !

I place my reliance to below recent case reported in a newspaper [the child here is 14 months old but if a father really loves his own child everything in this planet are possible legally come what ld. and respected members may say is my humble view]:

My request which you all ld. members may still disagree is that, kindly do not to treat any father as just a "seed giver".

It is not only Law but the Law of Nature itself does not permit you to do so.Be patient and be a happy Father till the differences are iron out.

other is the best caretaker of the child, It is High Court observation. Your baby is just one month, except mother you cannot take care.

At this stage You can apply for visiting rights and also try to patch the relation at that time.

How ever if the court ordered to custody the child with that father mean, its wil be a victory to father.. But its wil be justice.. Surely its wil against the nature of justice.. Thats my opinion
Adv ramesh chheda (Expert) 14 September 2010
