RACHNA BATRA vs SAURABH BATRA — T.P.(C) No. 860/2012

Case Summary: T.P.(C) No. 860/2012 - Rachna Batra v. Saurabh Batra Outcome: The Supreme Court allowed Rachna Batra's transfer petition on August 30, 2013. The matrimonial case (H.M.A. No. 100 of 2012) was transferred from the Family Court, New Delhi to the Family Court, Durg, Chhattisgarh. Reasoning: The Court rejected the respondent's claim of apprehension to his life, noting that his two attempts at amicable settlement contradicted such fears. Since the petitioner-wife resides in Durg, greater hardship would result from continuing proceedings in New Delhi. Next Steps: The transferring court must transmit case records without delay, and the transferee court is requested to decide the case expeditiously with parties' cooperation. No costs awarded.
