The respondent married the daughter of the appellants and they

blessed with a female child, namely, Dhivyasri on 15.10.2005.

died. On 01.12.2005, the appellants had taken the child. Thereafter, the

present appeal has been filed by the appellants, namely, grandparents of

the child.

directed the parties to appear before this Court today along with child.
