Hyderabad, March 18 -- In a marital dispute, the Andhra Pradesh High Court has rejected a plea by a husband to conduct DNA tests on his two children.

The court said that children should not be drawn into personal disputes between parents.

Dignity, rights of children

The husband, during the divorce case, had filed a plea claiming that it would prove that he is not the biological father of his wife's children.

He further said that it would support his claim of adultery by his wife.

However, in its order, Justice Tarlada Rajasekhar Rao said that protecting the dignity and rights of children is important.
