THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.G.SHANKAR WRIT PETITION No.13713 OF 2008 13.10.2011 Between: Ahmadullah Khan …. Petitioner AND The Commissioner of Disabled Welfare, Gruhakalpa, Nampally, Hyderabad, And others. … Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.G.SHANKAR WRIT PETITION No.13713 OF 2008 ORDER: (Per Hon’ble Sri Justice V.V.S.Rao) The petitioner is Opthalmologically challenged person. He is a teacher in the Government Residential School for visually handicapped. His wife is also visually challenged. She is also a teacher in Government Model High School, Mahabubnagar. The petitioner was transferred on 04.04.2001 to Karimnagar. He filed O.A.No.2395 of 2001. By order dated 12.04.2011, the said O.A., was disposed of directing the Commissioner, Disabled Welfare to consider the representation of the petitioner and explore the possibility of accommodating the petitioner and his wife at one place. According to the petitioner, in obedience to the orders of the Tribunal as above, he and his wife were retained at Mahabubnagar. By proceedings No.A1/3169/2008-5, dated 12.06.2008, the first respondent effected transfers of fifteen trained graduate teachers. The petitioner herein was transferred to Government Residential School for Visually Handicapped, Hindupur. The same order is assailed in the writ petition. It is now well settled that by reason of Judgment of the Supreme Court in L.Chandra Kumar v Union of India[1], that so far as the disputes in service matters, the High Court does not have the initial jurisdiction, though the petition for judicial review, however, lies against the final order of the Administrative Tribunal. As the petitioner approached this Court without challenging the proceedings, dated 12.06.2008 before the Administrative Tribunal, this writ petition is not maintainable. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed. No costs. _______________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) ___________________ (K.G.SHANKAR, J) 13.10.2011 Pln [1] (1997) 3 SCC 261 : AIR 1997 SC 1125
