Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court granted the wife's transfer petition under Section 24 of the Code of Civil Procedure, allowing the transfer of Matrimonial Suit No.46/2005 from Alipore to Guwahati due to the significant distance of approximately 1200 kms, which posed a hardship for the petitioner. The Court held that such a ground is valid for transfer, ensuring convenience and access to justice for the parties involved. The transfer was deemed necessary to facilitate the proceedings effectively.
