to ill treatment and harassment meted out to the petitioner/wife by the respondent/husband, she was compelled to live apart from her husband and she is currently residing at her parental house at Mahasamund along with her two minor daughters. Learned counsel would further submit that the respondent/husband has filed divorce petition bearing HMA No.605/2024 before the Family Court, Raipur, but being mother of two minor daughters, it would be difficult for the petitioner to go to Raipur from Mahasamund, which is about 55-60 km from Mahasamund. He further submits that maintenance order has been passed against the respondent/husband by Family Court, Mahasamund, despite that the respondent/husband is not making any payment, therefore, recovery proceedings bearing MJC No.183/2023 has been initiated by the applicant/wife before Family Court, Mahasamund, therefore, transferring divorce petition from Family Court Raipur to Family Court Mahasamund would be convenient for the respondent also, as such, it is prayed that divorce petition bearing HMA No.605/24 may be transferred from First Additional Principal Judge, Family Court, Raipur to Family Court Mahasamund.
