This appeal is filed by the appellant under Section

short] challenging the order dated 16.09.2014 passed in

petition filed by the respondent herein under Section 10

of the Act has been allowed, appointing the respondent

herein as a legal guardian to the child by name Krupa

Sharoon till she attains the age of majority.

2. As could be seen from the records, it cannot

be gainsaid that the child - Krupa Sharoon has now

attained the age of majority. Hence, on this ground

alone, appeal has become infructuous.

In the result, appeal stands dismissed as having

rendered infructuous.

In view of dismissal of the main appeal, all the

pending IAs stand disposed of accordingly.
