Heard Mr. S. N. Gaikwad, Adv. for petitioner and Mr.D.A.Sonwane, Adv. for respondents. This petition is directed against the impugned order dt. 18.8.2009 whereby the petitioner, who is incharge Head Master of the Primary School, is transferred from Besa to Tejawar. In the instant petition, main grievance of the petitioner is that this is a mid-term transfer and therefore, same is against the basic guidelines applicable in this regard. It is contended that, since the transfer is in violation of the procedure and the basic guidelines, the impugned order of transfer is not sustainable in law and violative of principles of natural justice. It is further submitted that, as per the contention of respondents, the order of transfer of petitioner is based on complaint and hence, it is punitive in nature 1311wp4297.09.odt 2 . and passed without giving opportunity of hearing to the petitioner. Counsel for respondents has supported the impugned order of transfer and has contended that there were complaints against the petitioner and therefore, it was necessary to transfer him from Besa. Considered the contentions canvassed by the respective counsel. Taking into consideration the overall view of the matter and in the interest of justice, it will be appropriate to direct the respondents not to give effect to the impugned order dt. 18.8.2009, which is undoubtedly a mid-term transfer, till the end of present Academic Session. The respondents are entitled to give effect to the impugned order w.e.f. 1st May, 2010. With these observations and directions, the petition is disposed of. JUDGE JUDGE jais
