3. The learned Advocate for the applicant contended that
about five proceedings were filed by the applicant/wife in the Court at
Yavatmal. It is submitted that since all those five matters are pending in
the Court at Yavatmal, the petition for divorce filed by the respondent/
husband be transferred from the Court of Civil Judge, Sr.Dn. Khamgaon
to the Court at Yavatmal. He contended that the applicant/wife finds it
difficult to attend the proceedings every now and then since the
distance between Yavatmal and Khamgaon is about 105 kms.
4. The learned counsel for the respondent vehemently
opposed the Application.
5. It is well settled by now that convenience of the wife is to
be considered and, as such, it it would be just and proper to transfer
HMP No.115/2017 from Khamgaon to Yavatmal.
6. The Hon'ble Apex Court in the case of Sumita Singh vs.
Kumar Sanjay and another, reported in AIR 2002 SC 396 has observed
that the wife's convenience must be considered in matrimonial
proceedings, particularly when the husband has filed the petition against
her. In view of the facts and circumstances of the case, following order is
passed:-
