The main grievance of the appellant is against that part of the writ court’s order whereby the appellant has been directed to first join the transferred post and thereafter represent before the authorities with an intimation that he has already joined the transferred post. Thereafter his representation dated 30.6.2009 on the ground of his personal difficulty as well as on the ground of violation of transfer rules are to be considered by the authorities at the earliest and in any case within one month from the date of receipt of the information that the petitioner has joined the transferred place. 2 Transfer is an incident of service and does not affect any vested right. In the facts of the case, we find no good reason to interfere with the order of the writ court. It is simply clarified that the appellant’s joining on the transferred post as per direction of the writ court shall not stand in the way of the consideration of his representation on merit in accordance with law. The appeal is thus disposed of. (Shiva Kirti Singh, ACJ.) Tahir/- ( Shyam Kishore Sharma, J.)
