Jaiwanti Kumri vs Gajadhar Upadhya on 11 April, 1911
In Jaiwanti Kumari v. Gajadhar Upadhya I.L.R. 38 Cal. 783, it was laid down that the mere fact of the mother being a pardanashin lady is no obstacle to her being appointed as a guardian and that though a pardanashin lady may not be able to personally supervise the management of the properties, the safe custody of the property and its due administration may be sufficiently guaranteed by security being taken from the proposed guardian by Court.
