The petitioner is the wife of the respondent. The marriage between the petitioner and the respondent was solemnized on 30.10.2022 at S.S. Mahal, Valayampattu, Vaniyambadi District, as per Hindu rites and rituals, and the same was registered on 25.11.2022 before the Sub Registrar, Uthangarai, Krishnagiri District. The case of the petitioner is that the respondent is her husband and that the respondent has instituted the above H.M.O.P. seeking divorce. The petitioner states that she is presently residing at Vaniyambadi, Tirupattur District, and that she has no independent means to frequently travel and attend the proceedings at Uthangarai, which, according to her, causes hardship and inconvenience. The petitioner therefore seeks transfer of the matrimonial proceedings to the Court at Vaniyambadi. 4. It is well settled that, while exercising power under Section 24 CPC, the Court has to consider the ends of justice, and in transfer petitions relating to matrimonial proceedings, the convenience and difficulties of the wife in attending the Court proceedings is a relevant and significant consideration, particularly when she pleads financial constraints and travel hardship. 2/4 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis Tr.C.M.P.No.605 of 2025 5.
