Hello,

I'm sorry to hear about what you're going through. In Pakistan, if you're the biological father, you have the legal right to seek child visitation or custody through the Guardian and Wards Act. Denying access to a child without a court order can be challenged in family court.

You can file a guardianship petition or an application for visitation rights. The court will consider the best interest and welfare of the child when making its decision, and you may be granted scheduled visitation or even partial custody depending on the circumstances.
