Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court granted the transfer petition filed by the petitioner-wife, Rachna, seeking the transfer of her case from Ambah, Madhya Pradesh to the Family Court in Saket, New Delhi. The court acknowledged the significant distance of approximately 800 km that the petitioner would have to travel to defend her case, and noted the absence of representation from the respondent. The court emphasized the importance of convenience in family law matters, leading to the decision to transfer the case.
