Besides the same, she has filed the petition for seeking dissolution of marriage and the petition under Section 12 of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, which are also pending in the Courts at Karnal.

In the given circumstances, it is submitted that it is difficult for the applicant, to commute a distance of about 160 kilometres, to defend the civil suit for Restitution of Conjugal Rights.
