IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Transfer Application No. 126 of 2010 (O&M). Date of Decision : 01.12.2010. Pooja ......Petitioner Versus Sawan Kumar ......Respondent CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE NAWAB SINGH Present: Mr. Sunil Bhardwaj, Advocate, for the petitioner. None for the respondent. NAWAB SINGH J. (ORAL) This is a transfer petition by the wife. She seeks the transfer of a petition filed by her husband under Section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act on the ground that distance between Jhajjar and Bhiwani is 85 KMs. The cardinal principle for exercise of the powers under Section 24 of the Code of Civil Procedure is the convenience and inconvenience of the parties. The paramount consideration for exercise of the power must be to meet the ends of justice. The convenience of both the parties and not of the petitioner only is to be seen. The mere fact that the place of trial is 85 Kms away from the place of residence of the petitioner is not enough for exercise of the powers conferred by Section 24 of the Code of Civil Procedure. Hence, the transfer petition is dismissed. (NAWAB SINGH) JUDGE 01.12.2010. neetu
