The petitioners resisted the claim contending that the petitioners are accustomed to delay the proceedings and the petition is nothing but a design to further delay the suit proceedings. The learned Principal District Judge, Guntur allowed the said petition transferring O.S.No.281 of 2016 along with O.S.No.8 of 2020 to the Court of the XIII Additional District Judge, Narasaraopet. 3.

Sri P.S.P.Suresh Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioners, while reiterating the contents of the counter filed in TOP and also the grounds of RC,J CRP No.3362 of 2023 4 revision would contend that the learned District Judge having observed that allegations made against the officer do not merit consideration and that allowing petitions filed for transfer of cases would encourage the persons to file similar sort of petitions whenever faced with an adverse order, ought not have allowed the petition. He would further contend that transferring the suits to a faraway place would cause hardship to the petitioners in effectively pursuing the case. Accordingly, prayed to allow the Civil Revision Petition. 5.
