The Nagpur bench of the Bombay High Court (HC) on Friday upheld a family court order which had refused to grant custody of a 6-year-old boy to his poor biological parents, observing that the child would be better off with his financially viable adoptive parents, a childless couple from Nagpur.

A division bench of justice AS Chandurkar and justice NB Suryawanshi said there was sufficient evidence to prove that the adoptive parents were in a better position to take care of the child, stated a report in Hindustan Times.
