Generally, once a court has jurisdiction, that court will keep jurisdiction, even if you move to another state. If you have moved, you can ask the court that issued the original order to change thejurisdiction to the new state that you are in.

Koustubh!

As per Sec. 9 of the Guardians and Wards Act 1890, the jurisdiction of the court for claiming custody of the monir child would be the place where the child are presently residing at. In this case it is pune.

Hence, Wife needs to file the petition at Pune.
