Judgment
In this case it appears that the appellant is a resident of Mysore. It is clearly against the intention of the Guardian and Wards Act that any one
residing outside British India should be appointed guardian of a minor''s person, as over such a guardian the Court could not exercise its proper
control--see T.N. Muthuveerappa Chetti alias T.N. Batcha Chetty and Another Vs. T.R. Ponnusawmy Chetty, . The appellant, therefore, cannot
herself be appointed guardian of the minor under the Act. For this reason without going into any of the other questions raised we find it
unnecessary to interfere in the appellant''s favour with the order of the learned District Judge. This will not preclude the appellant from seeking any
other remedy open to her.
The appeal is dismissed.
