Act no. 3 of 19731973RepealedKerala (State Act)
This Act was repealed on a date we do not have by Central Act 53 of 1986 (as printed under the copy's title); it may still apply to matters that began before then.
52. Control of custodian over child. — Any person in whose custody a child is placed in pursuance of this Act shall, while the order is in force, have the like control over the child as he would have if he were his parent, and shall be responsible for his maintenance, and the child shall continue in his custody for the period stated by the competent authority, notwithstanding that he is claimed by his parent or an other person: Provided that no child while in such custody shall be married except with the permission of the competent authority.
