Jyoti Rani, the applicant-wife has preferred the instant application under Section 24 of the Code of Civil Procedure, seeking transfer of the petition under Section 9 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 (for short `the Act'), titled as ‘Gurpreet Singh Vs. Jyoti’, filed by the respondent, from the Court of learned Civil Judge (Sr. Divn.), Moga, to the Court of competent jurisdiction at Patiala. 2. A perusal of the file would reveal that the applicant has filed a petition under Section 125 Cr.P.C. claiming maintenance, which is pending adjudication in the Court of learned Additional District Judge, Patiala. She is also raising the minor daughter born out of the TA No.550 of 2010 2 wedlock between the parties. It has been averred that the applicant has no resources to defend her case at Moga. 3. On the other hand, it is the case of the respondent that the only dispute between the parties is that the applicant wants the respondent to sell of his land to settle with her at Patiala. 4. The only ground for transfer of the petition in the instant case is that the applicant has no resources to go to Jalandhar, where the respondent has instituted the petition under Section 9 of the Act. 5. Accordingly, it is ordered that the respondent shall pay ` 1,000/- to the applicant on each visit from Ferozepur to Jalandhar, in regard to the petition under Section 9 of the Act filed by the respondent. 6. Consequently, the present application is dismissed. 17.03.2011 (JITENDRA CHAUHAN) atulsethi JUDGE Note : Whether to be referred to Reporter ? Yes / No
