From the perusal of the file, this Court finds no cogent and convincing reason to allow the present application. The applicant has not placed any evidence on record, which shows the conduct of the respondents led to any untoward incident. The allegation of threat and inaction of the police is not made out. A mere presumption or unfounded apprehensions nursed by either of the party cannot be the ground of transfer. A transfer should not readily be granted for any fancied notion of a litigant. The yardstick is “in the interest of justice”. There is no material on record to show that the respondents are capable to influence the course of justice. Thus, the apprehension of the applicant are baseless and deserves to be rejected. Moreover, the suit land falls under the territorial jurisdiction of Zira. The applicant has arrayed as a large number of people as respondents, against whom no relief has been claimed. The balance of convenience does not tilt in favour of the applicant rather it is in favour of the defendantsrespondents. For the convenience of the applicant alone, 52 defendants cannot be allowed to suffer. Moreover, it would be very difficult for the other court, out of Zira, to conduct the trial expeditiously.
