Thereafter, the learned Family Court, Sagar is requested not to insist on the personal attendance of the applicant at Family Court, Sagar, unless it is considered imperative by the learned Family Court. The applicant is given the liberty of getting her evidence and that of her witnesses, recorded through Video Conferencing from the Family Court/Competent Court at Sagar itself. She is also permitted to cross-examine the respondent through video conferencing. The learned trial Court is requested to accept the application and the documents relied upon by the applicant through electronic filing system. A copy of this order be sent to the learned Family Court at Sagar to be placed in the file of RCSHM No.909/2020. A copy of this order be also sent to the Family Court, Jabalpur.

With the above, this application is finally disposed of.
