WPSS No.1889 of 2011 Hon’ble V.K. Bist, J. Shri Tanuj Semwal, learned counsel for the petitioner. Shri Anil Bisht, learned Brief Holder for the State/respondents. Heard learned counsel for the parties. Petitioner filed the Writ Petition no.469 of 2011 (S/S) before this Court for a direction to the respondents to transfer him from Ati Durgam area to Sugam area, as the petitioner has already completed five years at Ati Durgam area. That petition was filed on the ground that the son of the petitioner is mentally retarded and suffering from 41% disablement, therefore, as per the Rules, he should be transferred to the place where medical facilities are available. The said writ petition was disposed of on 21.05.2011, with the direction to the Director School Education, Uttarakhand to take appropriate action in the matter on or before 30th June, 2011. In compliance of the said order, the Director Education (Basic), Government of Uttarakhand, Dehradun passed an order on 28.06.2011, rejecting the claim of the petitioner on the ground that in the event of transfer of the petitioner at some other school, there will be no regular teacher to teach the students and the school cannot be left without a regular teacher, as only one Shiksha Mitra is working in the school, where the petitioner is working. The petitioner has now filed the present writ petition for a direction to the respondents to transfer the petitioner from Ati Durgam area to Sugam area, as per the Transfer Policy. The submission of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that petitioner is working at Ati Durgam area for more than six years and is now entitled for transfer at Sugam area, as per the Transfer Policy. He submitted that the necessity for seeking transfer from Ati Durgam area to Sugam area is that the son of the petitioner is mentally retarded and suffering from 41% disablement and for the treatment of his son, petitioner is required to take his son from Oder Deval, District Chamoli to the Jolly Grant Hospital, Dehradun, which is 320 Kms. away from the present place of posting of the petitioner. This is creating inconvenience to the petitioner and due to this reason, petitioner is also not able to devote his full time for teaching the students. He further submitted that the ground on which the representation of the petitioner has been rejected was incorrect, as at present there are 531 schools, which are being run by the Shiksha Mitra. In support of his submission, he referred to the information given to him by the Public Information Officer/Joint Director, School Education Directorate, Uttarakhand, Dehradun dated 28th July, 2011, in which it is mentioned that in the State of Uttarakhand, 531 primary schools are being run by the Shiksha Mitra. Learned counsel for the petitioner contended that when 531 schools are being run by the Shiksha Mitra, then the representation of the petitioner was wrongly rejected on the ground that the responsibility of the school, in which petitioner is placed, cannot be left on the shoulder of the Shiksha Mitra. The contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner appears to be correct, therefore, the writ petition is disposed of with the direction to the Director Education, Dehradun to reconsider the representation of the petitioner afresh within a period of one month from the date of production of certified copy of the order.
