I have gone through the affidavit filed in support of the transfer application. I am satisfied that the petitioner has made out sufficient and just cause for seeking transfer, as she is seriously prejudiced and inconvenienced by being compelled to attend the proceedings before the Principal Sub Court, Kancheepuram. 4. The learned counsel for the respondent, on instructions, fairly states that he has no objection and only seeks for dispensing with physical presence of the respondent before the Sub Court, Kumbakonam.
