THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.G.SHANKAR WRIT PETITION NO.7188 OF 2005 ORDER: (Per the Hon’ble Sri Justice V.V.S.Rao) The petitioner is the Deputy General Manager (Engineering) of Hyderabad Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board, Hyderabad. He was working in O&M Division. By order in G.O.Rt.No.17-MA, Municipal Administration & Urban Development Department, dated 01.01.2005, he was transferred as Executive Engineer of A.P. Public Health and Municipal Engineering Services. He filed O.A.No.53 of 2005 assailing the same. By impugned order dated 11.03.2005, the Andhra Pradesh Administrative Tribunal, Hyderabad (Tribunal), dismissed the O.A. holding that the transfer was made on administrative grounds and that the same is not violated by any mala fides. In this Writ Petition, it is contended that when similarly situated employees filed applications, the learned Tribunal granted relief but the same is not denied to the petitioner. This cannot be a ground to interfere under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. The extent and scope of judicial review of the orders of the learned Tribunal depends on various factors including the different fact situation. Merely because the Tribunal interfered with the transfer orders in the matters filed by other employees, the same cannot be a ground much less a valid ground to interfere with the well- considered order of the Tribunal. For the above reasons, the Writ Petition is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) ___________________ (K.G.SHANKAR, J) 12th October 2011 RRB
