It is stated that the minor child is in custody of applicant residing with her at Fazilka, therefore, the applicant is relegated to the remedy of approaching the trial Court by moving an appropriate application seeking return of petition for transferring to the Court of competent jurisdiction at Fazilka. The trial Court shall dispose of the application in accordance with law. However, if the applicant is still aggrieved, then she can approach this Court again.

The petition is disposed of accordingly.
