1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH, NAGPUR. Writ Petition No.3725/2008 Prosanjit Ghosh s/o B.N. Ghosh Vs. Air Chief Martial and others. Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram appearances, Court's orders or directions Court's or Judge's Orders and Registrar's orders. Mr. A.S. Kilor, Adv. for the petitioner. Coram : B. H. Marlapalle And Smt. Vasanti A. Naik, JJ. Dated : 24th November, 2008. Heard Mr. Kilor, the learned counsel for the petitioner. The petitioner came to be enrolled by the Indian Air Force on 3rd September, 1996 as a Mechanical Transport Driver and he came to be posted at Vayusena Nagar, Nagpur with effect from 8th September, 2003. He applied for discharge, vide his application dated 12.1.2007, on the ground of his parents' illness. The Competent Authority considered the said application and rejected it on 3.4.2007. The petitioner submitted a fresh application reiterating the request of discharge on 7.3.2008 and it came to be again rejected by the order dated 30.6.2008. In the meanwhile, he came to be transferred by the order dated 14.9.2008 to Gwalior. 2 It has been pointed out by the respondents in their reply that the enrollment of the petitioner was initially for a period of 20 years and the said period expires on 2nd September, 2016. The case of the petitioner for discharge was duly considered by the Competent Authority in terms of the policy laid down and his request came to be rejected. But, at the same time, he has been posted at a place close to his home town so that it may be easy for him to visit his ailing parents. We do not find any case for interference in the decision taken by the respondents in rejecting the petitioner's application for discharge from the Air Force. However, Mr. Kilor, the learned counsel for the petitioner submitted an oral application to grant some time for the petitioner to report at the new posting and we find that the request is reasonable. Hence, the petition is rejected summarily and the petitioner is granted four weeks' time from today to report at the new posting. JUDGE JUDGE Ambulkar.
