CRISP takes up cause of fathers' plight

Hyderabad, May 30 : With two out of five marriages ending in divorce in

the country, the Child Rights Initiative for Shared Parenting (CRISP), first

of its kind non-governmental organisation, has taken up the cause of men

who were denied access to their children.

Higlighting the plight of over five lakh such

parents, especially fathers, CRISP Founder

President Kumar V Jahgirdhar here today

told reporters, ''In many cases despite court

orders, fathers are not allowed to see their

children. Children should have equal

access to both parents for them to lead a

normal life. We must make shared

parenting mandatory.'' Mr Kumar, himself

was fighting a legal battle for equal access

to his daughter from his wife Chethana, who

has now married to Indian Cricket

legspinner Anil Kumble.

He pressed for setting up of special courts for disposal of child custody cases in a

maximum of three months and enactment of laws to make shared parenting

mandatory.

Noting that misuse of anti-dowry laws and other woman-protection laws were a

serious problem in the country, he said increasing number of aged parents,

sisters and children in husband's family were implicated in ''false cases''.

''The mothers in order to take revenge on their husbands, don't allow them to see

the child. Courts and Governments should understand that fathers too have love

and affection for their children,'' he contended.

CRISP presented the case of a Non-Resident Indian pharmaceutical scientist V

Ravichandran in Florida, who has been denied access to his six-year-old son

Aditya for over 670 days with his mother moving their son from one place to

another.

The CRISP would hold roadshows all over the country to mobilise public opnion

on the plight of fathers, he added.
