Heard learned Counsel for the parties.

This Misc. Civil Application seeks transfer of a matrimonial proceeding filed by the Respondent-husband against the Applicant-wife and pending before the Joint Civil Judge, Senior Division at Sangli. The transfer is sought to the court at Solapur, where the Applicant's proceeding under Domestic Violence Act against the Respondenthusband is pending. The only practical grievance of the Applicant appears to be unaffordability of expenses to be incurred for attending the matter at Sangli. It is submitted that the Applicant is staying at Aherwadi, Solapur; the court at Sangli is at a considerable distance

These expenses shall be paid on each day of the Applicant's attendance for the court proceedings at Sangli. Each day's expenses shall be paid on the very day of attendance and in cash against a receipt acknowledged by the Applicant.
