THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.25609 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioner is functioning as Managing Director of the Chodavaram Cooperative Sugar Factor Limited, Chodavaram. Through G.O.Rt.No.450, dated 14.07.2010, the Government transferred him as Managing Director of Tandava Cooperative Sugar Factory, Visakhapatnam. Challenging that order, the petitioner filed W.P.No.17017 of 2010. He pleaded that under his management, large-scale modernization was taken up in the Chodavaram Sugar Factory and if he is transferred, the process would be hampered. He has also narrated the achievements, ever since he joined that sugar factory in January, 2008. The respondents contended that the left over service of the petitioner is too meager and it is essential that all the modernization works taken up in the factory are completed during the tenure of the same Managing Director. The writ petition was disposed of on 21.09.2010, setting aside G.O.Rt.No.450 dated 14.07.2010 and directing the Government to reconsider the matter in the light of the observations made in the judgment. The Government accordingly reconsidered the matter and issued orders in G.O.Rt.No.631, dated 01.10.2010. It was pointed out that the left over service of the petitioner is about 13 months, and that the modernization works that are taken up in the factory would take at least 1½ years for completion. The petitioner challenges the said order. Heard Sri M.V.Raaja Raam, learned counsel for the petitioner, learned Government Pleader for Industries and Sri Vedula Srinivas, learned Standing Counsel for the Sugar Factory. There is no denial of the fact that the petitioner contributed for the improvement of the state of affairs in the Chodavaram Sugar Factory and that he has mooted proposals for modernization of the factory at the proposed cost of Rs.29 crores. The anxiety of the petitioner was that the modernization works must be undertaken and completed during his tenure, in that factory. The order of transfer was set aside by this Court directing the Government to reconsider the matter. After due consideration of the matter, the Government opined that it would take at least 1½ years for completion of the work, and the left over service of the petitioner is about one year. The petitioner asserts that the works can be completed within one year. This Court as well as the Government understood the intention and anxiety of the petitioner, to undertake the works to derive satisfaction for successful completion thereof. In the G.O., a detailed account of the proposed works is given and it is stated that the tendering process itself would take quite sometime and the left over service of the petitioner would not sufficient for completion of the work. In that view of the matter, no exception can be taken to the impugned order. It is brought to the notice of this Court that the incumbent posted in the place of the petitioner has already taken charge. Hence, the Writ Petition is dismissed. There shall be no order as costs. _____________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J. Dt.08.10.2010. GJ
