4.3.2009 Present: Mrs. Ranjana Parmar, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. Vivek Thakur, Addl. A. G. and Mr. Anil Jaswal, Dy. A.G. for the respondents. CWP(T) No. 3237/2008(OA No.1653/05) The impugned order of transfer (Annexure A-3) dated 11.4.2005, transferring the petitioner from Chamba Division to Jubbal Division was stayed by this Court on 4.7.2005. By virtue of the interim order, the petitioner has continued to stay at his original place of posting for more than four years. Incidentally, this Court also stayed the office order dated 30.6.2005 (Annexure A-4), which was passed on the petitioner’s representation. Transfer is an incidence of service. By virtue of the interim order passed by this Court, the petitioner has stayed at his original place of posting for more than three years. He has no right to continue at the same place in future. It is solely the prerogative of the State to transfer and post its employees in the best interest of public and keeping in view the administrative exigencies. For the aforesaid reasons, the interim order is vacated and the present petition is dismissed. ( Sanjay Karol ), Judge. March 4, 2009 (rana)
