ORDER

3.

Regular List Serial No. 05

2 TrP (C) No. 24/2025

4. The petitioner has come forward with present transfer application seeking transfer of the respondent’s suit to the court of competent jurisdiction in Jammu.

5. It has been stated at the Bar by Mr. Raghubir Singh, learned counsel for the petitioner that from the end of the petitioner a civil suit against the respondent is pending before the court of Munsiff Sunderbani which is said to have suffered dismissal and, therefore, the only litigation which is obtaining between the petitioner and the respondent is civil suit of the respondent against the petitioner before the court of Sub Judge, (Special Mobile Magistrate), Rajouri.

6. This Court finds no good reason for ordering transfer of said civil suit from the court of Sub Judge, (Special Mobile Magistrate), Rajouri to anywhere else, within or outside the District Rajouri, more particularly, when Rajouri is now well connected with rest of India through widened roads and convenient public transport and also the District Court Rajouri has a Bar as good as the one which is in the Jammu district. Therefore, the transfer application is dismissed.
