WP(C) 3065/2010 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE RANJAN GOGOI This writ petition has been filed seeking a direction to the respondents, partic ularly the Director of Land Records, to consider the case of the petitioner for transfer from Sonitpur to Dhubri. The petitioner is holding the post of Addition al Mondal. According to the petitioner, there are vacant posts of Mondals availa ble in Dhubri and the Deputy Commissioners of the two districts have also no obj ection if the petitioner is to be transferred. Furthermore, according to the pet itioner, the legal impediment on account of pendency of a writ petition i.e. WP( C) No.2304 of 2010 has also been ceased to exist in view of the order dated 26.5 .2010 passed by this Court disposing of the said writ petition. It is in these c ircumstances that the direction, as noticed above, has been prayed for. Mr. U. K. Nair, learned counsel for the Director of Land Records, has drawn the attention of the Court to the penultimate paragraphs of the order dated 26.5.201 0 passed in WP(C) No.2304/2010 and has submitted that because of the directions contained in the said paragraph there may be difficulties in acceding to the req uest of the petitioner to transfer to Dhubri. The aforesaid paragraph contained in the order dated 26.5.2010 passed in WP(C) No.2304/2010 referred to above is e xtracted below :- Considering, therefore, the matter in its entirety and in the interest of justi ce, this writ petition is disposed of with direction to the respondents to ensur e that the appointment to the post of Mandal is made in order of seniority in te rms of the said combined list so long the amalgamated establishment of the Settl ement Officers of the said two districts is maintained. The request of the petitioner for transfer to Dhubri is on compassionate and hum anitarian grounds. I have considered the directions contained in the relevant pa ragraph of the order dated 26.5.2010 passed in WP(C) No.2304/2010 extracted abov e. It is my considered view that the said directions cannot come in the way of t ransfer of the petitioner to Dhubri. The respondent, particularly the Director o f Land Records, therefore, is directed to finalise consideration of request of t he petitioner for transfer to Dhubri within two weeks from the date of receipt o f this order or a certified copy thereof. The writ petition is disposed of in the above terms.
