IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.11348 of 2009 UPENDRA ROY . Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS . ----------- 2. 29.10.2009 Heard the counsel for the petitioner and the counsel appearing for the state. Petitioner has prayed for quashing the order dated 30.06.2009 passed by the Regional Deputy Director, Education, Saharsa whereby petitioner’s representation filed against the order dated 30.01.2009 issued under the signature of Block Education Officer, Madhepura has been rejected. The Block Education Officer, Madhepura had cancelled the transfer of the petitioner from Middle School, Maliya to Surendra Middle School, Madhepura. Against this order, the petitioner represented before the Regional Deputy Director, Education, Saharsa but the same has been rejected on the ground that the petitioner is not eligible for optional transfer in violation of the transfer rules within five years of optional transfer earlier occasion. I do not find any error in the order impugned passed by the Regional Deputy Director, Education, Saharsa as the petitioner had prayed for optional transfer in violation of the transfer rules. Once he had availed the benefit of optional transfer and as per the rule within five years, he could not have prayed for second optional transfer. Considering these facts, this writ application is 2 dismissed. Petitioner has liberty to represent his case before the competent authority if so advised. AKV/ (Mridula Mishra, J.)
