Under section 6 of Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act, 1956, the natural guardian of an illegitimate minor child is.................
Answer: A
The natural guardian of an illegitimate minor is the mother.
Section 6(b) of the Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act, 1956 provides that in the case of an illegitimate boy or an illegitimate unmarried girl, the natural guardian is the mother, and after her, the father.
So the father comes only after the mother, and the Act does not make both parents guardians simultaneously or leave the choice open. (For a legitimate child, Section 6(a) names the father, and after him the mother.)
