Question Description
Directions: Read the following passage and answer the question.Under the Hindu Adoptions and Maintenance Act, 1956, a Hindu is bound, during his or her lifetime, to maintain his or her illegitimate children. The obligation to maintain illegitimate children is now upon both, the father as well as the mother. Not only the illegitimate son but also an illegitimate daughter is entitled to be maintained by her father and mother.The right to be maintained, however, extends only up to the period of minority. An illegitimate child is not entitled to be maintained by his or her parents after attaining majority. Such a child will also not be entitled to be maintained if he or she has ceased to be a Hindu by conversion to another religion.Moreover, under the Hindu Adoptions and Maintenance Act, an illegitimate son of a deceased Hindu, so long as he is a minor, and an illegitimate daughter of a deceased Hindu, so long as she remains unmarried, are entitled to be maintained by the heirs of the deceased out of the estate inherited by them or by the persons who take the estate of the deceased.Such a son or daughter, however, will not be entitled to maintenance under the said Act if he or she has ceased to be a Hindu by conversion to another religion. An illegitimate child who has ceased to be a Hindu can, however, apply for maintenance from his or her father under the Code of Criminal Procedure.The court has given some landmark judgments in the field of illegitimacy. Some of such decisions are :The Supreme Court of India in Revanasiddappa vs. Mallikarjun opined that: the constitutional values enshrined in the Preamble of our Constitution that focuses on the concept of equality of status and opportunity and also on individual dignity. The Court has to remember that relationship between the parents may not be sanctioned by law but the birth of a child in such a relationship has to be viewed independently of the relationship of the parents. A child born in such a relationship is innocent and is entitled to all the rights which are given to other children born in a valid marriage.The Indian Society is a metaphysical society and so, it is going through a transformation stage that consists of two broad categories of people with two distinct ideologies. One of the groups believes in the orthodox methods of Hindu religion where having an illegitimate child is taboo and being one is a bigger stigma.The other group in the society consists of people who are rational and liberal in their outlook and do not consider illegitimacy as a stigma. They do not blame an illegitimate child for his/her existence instead blame the irresponsible couple. The laws in the society are also being amended accordingly as time and the situation demands.There is a need to be more liberal towards illegitimate children and the laws should also be amended in such a way that they have the best interest of all the people at heart.Q.
