According to Section 29 of The Code of Civil Procedure 1908, the Dubai court can send the summons to a court in Mumbai. The Mumbai court will then serve the summons to Rajesh's business partner as if it were issued by the Mumbai court itself.

The Delhi court will serve the summons to Priya as if it were issued by the Delhi court.
