IN THE HIGH COURT OF HIMACHAL PRADESH SHIMLA CWP No.3138 of 2010. Date of Decision: 7.9.2010 Smt.Aikant Priya …Petitioner. Versus. State of Himachal Pradesh and others …Respondents. Coram: The Hon’ble Mr.Justice Deepak Gupta, Judge. Whether approved for Reporting? No. For the Petitioner(s): Mr.Rajiv Rai, Advocate For the Respondent(s): Mr.Rajesh Mandhotra, Dy.A.G. for respondents 1 to 3. Mr.Tarlok Chauhan, counsel for R-4. Deepak Gupta, J.(oral) The petitioner by means of this writ petition has challenged the order dated 5th June, 2010 whereby the petitioner has been transferred from GPS Chailchowk to GPS Majhdwar and the respondent No.4 who was under transfer from GPS Nalsar to GPS Majhdwar has been adjusted in GPS Chailchowk in place of the petitioner. The main grievance of the petitioner is that the transfer of respondent No.4 has been cancelled only with a view to accommodate her at Chailchowk and the petitioner who has already served in the sub cadre area has been posted in sub cadre area again. 2 I have heard learned counsel for the parties. From the material on record it is more than apparent that the petitioner has spent last 11 years of her service within a radius of 10 to 12 kms. of Chailchowk. No employee can have a vested right to stay in or around one place through out his/her career. The respondent on the other hand joined service in the year 2006 and has only spent four years in one place. Between the two the respondent has spent less time at one station. Therefore, I find no merit in the writ petition which is dismissed. However, since the petitioner has already served in the sub cadre area, her case for appointment at some place other than the sub cadre area may be considered and in case she makes a representation in this behalf within two weeks from today the same shall be considered and decided by the respondent No.2 within three weeks thereafter.
