    In a mutual consent divorce petition the parties can be represented through a Special Power of Attorney holder as there are catena of judgments on that point. 


    In case of a contested divorce the parties can be represented through counsel but usually the courts insists that the party should be present as the nature of case is of family dispute and further if any endeavor could be made for settlement.
