Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court granted a transfer petition under Section 24 of the Code of Civil Procedure, allowing the wife to transfer her divorce petition from New Delhi to Indore due to her dependency on her family and the difficulty of traveling for court proceedings. The Court emphasized the need for convenience and accessibility for the petitioner, particularly considering her responsibilities as a mother of two children. The transfer was ordered to ensure fair access to justice for the petitioner.
