THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.G.SHANKAR WRIT PETITION No.23498 of 2011 Dated:23.08.2011 Between: K.Lakshmi Narayana .. Petitioner And Union of India represented by the Secretary, Ministry of Water Resources, Government of India, Srama Shakti Bhawan, Rafi Marg, New Delhi and others .. Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.G.SHANKAR WRIT PETITION No.23498 of 2011 ORDER: The petitioner is Scientist-B (Group A) in Central Ground Water Board (CGWB). He has put in about 30 years of service. He came to Jammu on transfer from Hyderabad in 2001. When he was transferred in 2005 from Jammu to Calcutta, again he was posted in Hyderabad in 2007. By an order dated 25.04.2011, he was transferred to CGWB, Southern Region, Hyderabad to CGWB, State Union Office, Ranchi. Aggrieved by the same, he filed O.A.No.434 of 2011 under Section 19 of the Administrative Tribunals Act, 1985. The said O.A. having been dismissed by the learned Central Administrative Tribunal, Hyderabad, by order dated 18.07.2011, the petitioner filed the instant writ petition seeking judicial review of the order of the learned Tribunal. The counsel for the petitioner submits that the impugned transfer order was passed in total disregard of the allegations made by the petitioner against the third respondent while he was working at Jammu and from the counter allegations made against the petitioner he would further contend that the order is not passed for administrative reasons and it is futile and liable to be set aside. A perusal of the order of the learned Tribunal would show that the petitioner raised the self-same grounds before the learned Tribunal which did not carry much weight. The learned Tribunal dismissed the O.A., observing that the petitioner, having completed four years of service at Hyderabad, has been transferred on administrative grounds and, therefore, no interference is called for. We have perused the material annexed to the writ petition for our convenience. This is not such an extra-ordinary case warranting interference with the order of a transfer of the Government servant. We, however, give liberty to the petitioner to approach the first respondent for necessary redressal, if so advised. The writ petition, with the above observations, is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. ________________ (V.V.S. RAO, J) ___________________ (K.G.SHANKAR, J) 23.08.2011 KH
