Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court granted the wife's transfer petition under the grounds of her inability to travel to Patna due to her responsibilities as a mother of a four-year-old son and the pending maintenance application in Bandra, Mumbai. The Court held that these circumstances constituted sufficient grounds for the transfer of the Hindu Marriage Petition No.113/2005 from Patna to Bandra. Consequently, the petition was allowed, facilitating the wife's ability to contest the suit without leaving her minor child behind.
