The distance between Beed and Rahuri is around 150 km. Rahuri is a taluka place near Shirdi. It is situated on the main highway. The distance between the two places is hardly 150 km. 12. In that view of the matter, in the considered opinion of this Court, no case is made out for transfer of Criminal Miscellaneous Application No.125 of 2022 from Rahuri to Beed, as prayed by the applicant-wife. Therefore, the application is liable to be rejected. Accordingly, it is rejected. 13. The applicant may apply for travelling expenses in the marriage petition and Domestic Violence Act petition filed by her, Page 3 of 4 916 MCA 195-2026 and not in the petition filed by the mother-in-law. 14.
