Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court, in a transfer petition under Section 25 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, held that the matrimonial suit pending in Khagaria, Bihar, should be transferred to New Delhi due to the petitioner's lack of income and the significant distance of 1500 kms, which would hinder her ability to attend court proceedings. The Court emphasized the need for accessibility to justice for the petitioner, thereby facilitating her participation in the legal process. The case was ordered to be transferred without costs.
