Transfer, though various instructions are issued, it could be considered due to avaiability of vacancy, terms of service etc., You cannot claim it as a matter of right.

Transfer can not be claimed as a matter of right. Your husband can represent again after some time or on new grounds.
You can try your transfer at the place of your husband.

Your husband's transfer is regretted, then you can apply for a transfer to Balangir which is about 20km from Balangir. so you can submit an application on spouse's ground besides old age parents.

Is your husband's post transferable? Please verify.
The better option would be to seek your transfer to Jabalpur. Also, please note that norms for posting husband and wife at the same station are only directory, not mandatory.
