Petitioner Versus State of Haryana and others ...... Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Ajay Tewari Present: Mr. R.K.Sharma, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr.R.N.Sharma, Advocate for respondent No.3. **** 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? Ajay Tewari, J. The petitioner has challenged her transfer from Govt. Girls Senior Secondary Schoool, Jind to Govt. Senior Secondary School, Mirchpur (Hisar) vice respondent No.3. It is stated that the petitioner orthopaedically handicapped to the extent of 75% and thus as per the transfer policy has to be allotted a station of her choice. Mr.R.N. Sharma, Advocate who has appareled on behalf of respondent No.3 states that originally she had been transferred out to Mirchpur and has challenged that order by way of CWP No. 1028 of 2009 CWP No. 6402 of 2009 2 on the ground that she also had medical problems and was also exempted from transfer and after consideration of her case the transfer was cancelled. Be that as it may the consolidated facts which have emerged are that both the petitioner and the respondent No.3 are claiming medical exemption from transfer. On the asking of the Court Mr. Harish Rathee, learned Senior DAG, Haryana accepts notice on behalf of respondents No. 1 and 2. In my opinion it would be appropriate if the cases of both the petitioner as well as respondent No.3 are considered in the light of their medical condition so that it may be determined if both of them deserve relief from transfer. In the circumstances this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondent No.2 to reconsider the case of transfer of the petitioner and the respondent No.3 in the light of their medical condition to see if any relief can be granted to them to the extent that both may be posted at Jind, if possible. Let the needful be done within a period of 15 days from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this order. Till then status quo as it exists today be maintained. A copy of this order be given dasti to learned counsel for the parties under the signatures of the Court Secretary. (AJAY TEWARI) JUDGE April 29, 2009 sunita
