IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.7804 of 2010 KUMARI GEETA PRASAD, WIFE OF SRI ASHOK KUMAR SINGH, RESIDENT OF AT KRISHNA NAGAR AURANGABAD, P.S. AURANGABAD, DISTRICT AURANGABAD. ---- PETITIONER Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR 2. THE I.G. REGISTRATION AND EXCISE DEPARTMENT, GOVERNMENT OF BIHAR, PATNA. 3. THE DISTRICT MAGISTRATE, NALANDA 4. THE DISTRICT REGISTRAR, NALANDA 5. THE DISTRICT SUB REGISTRAR, NALANDA, DISTRICT NALANDA 6. THE SUB REGISTRAR, RAJGIR, DISTRICT NALANDA 7. THE DISTRICT MAGISTRATE, AURANGABAD 8. THE DISTRICT REGISTRAR, AURANGABAD ---- RESPONDENTS ----------- 2 12.5.2010 The petitioner by the impugned annexure-1 dated 11.1.2001 has been transferred from Aurangabad to Nalanda and posted at Rajgir as a Lower Division Clerk. After her transfer, the petitioner filed a representation before the I.G. Registrar, Excise and Prohibition contained in annexure-7 praying therein that she may be transferred to Aurangabad or near about Aurangabad since her husband is working in the Collectorate at Aurangabad. The said prayer has been made on the basis of the letter no. 881 issued on 3rd of June, 2009 which gives the ground on which representations may be considered of transfer of employees. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State submits that the said letter would not be applicable in the case of the petitioner as the petitioner 2 has been transferred before completing three years at the place of her posting. In my opinion, when there is a mass transfer and it is not made for extra ordinary reasons or for administrative reasons, it cannot be said that this circular would not be applicable. In any event, the respondent no. 2 may dispose of the representation of the petitioner within a period of two months on receipt/production of a copy of this order. This application is disposed of with the aforesaid observations. Sanjay ( Sheema Ali Khan, J.)
