The petitioner challenges the same on the ground that her husband is working at Secunderabad. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and also the learned standing counsel for the respondents. There cannot be any dispute that the transfer is made under General Transfers, as it is one of the requirements of the service conditions. The jurisdiction of the authority, who issued the transfer order is not under challenge. So also, no malafides are attributed to the transferring authority and it is also not a case that the transfer is made in contravention of the rules or regulations regarding the transfer of the candidates. But the grievance of the petitioner is that her husband is working at Secunderabad and for that purpose, she made a representation to the respondents on 29.12.2004 to consider her case to retain her at Hyderabad, so that, they both can live at the present station. The same has to be considered by the respondents in accordance with the transfer policy of the respondents. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of, directing the respondents to consider the representation of the petitioner, dated 29.12.2004 in accordance with the rules and regulations. ____________ (K.C.BHANU, J) 31st December 2004 RRB ASSISTANT REGISTRAR //True Copy// SECTION OFFICER Copy To: 1.
