IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.347 of 2010 1. MANOJ KUMAR S/O SRI BASANT RAM R/O VILL.- KUTLUPUR, P.O. BARA, P.S. SILAO, DISTT. NALANDA Versus 1 THE STATE OF BIHAR. 2. THE DIRECTOR, PRIMARY EDUCATION GOVT. OF BIHAR, PATNA 3. THE COLLECTOR NALANDA 4. DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT OF EDUCATION NALANDA 5. BLOCK EDUCATION EXTENSION OFFICER RAJGIR-II, DISTT.- NALANDA 6. BLOCK DEVELOPMENT OFFICER BIHARSHARIF, DISTT.- NALANDA 7. AREA EDUCATION OFFICER BIHARSHARIF, DISTT.- NALANDA ----------- 02/ 10.05.2010 Heard counsel for the petitioner and counsel appearing for the State. Petitioner’s prayer is for quashing of the order contained in Memo No. 5626 dated 10.12.2009, whereby District Superintendent of Education, Nalanda has transferred the petitioner from Primary School, Badripur Mahadeopur, Rajgir to Primary School, Balchand Bigaha, Ban Anchal, Rajgir –II. By the impugned order the petitioner has been directed to give joining at the transferred place within 24 hours and he has been relieved with immediate effect. On perusal of the impugned order and the pleadings in the writ application, I do not find that in any way any illegality has been committed by issuing transfer order and it transpires that the District Superintendent of Education has - 2 - issued direction to all Area Education Officer and the Block Education Officer to depute teachers from one School to another School, where the teachers are not available and the students are suffering on account of non-availability of teacher. It seems that in the light of this direction, the petitioner has also been transferred. There is no merit in this application, it is dismissed. DKS/ (Mridula Mishra, J.)
