IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO. 7378 OF 2008 DATE OF DECISION: May 08, 2008 Parties Name M.S.Sheoran ..PETITIONER VERSUS State of Haryana etc. ...RESPONDENTS CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE JASBIR SINGH HON'BLE MR JUSTICE K. C. PURI PRESENT: Mr. R.K.Malik, Sr. Adv., with Mr. Nigam Kumar, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. Harish Rathee, Sr. D.A.G., Haryana; JASBIR SINGH, J. (oral) Order. On May 5, 2008, following contention of counsel for the petitioner was noticed by this Court when notice of motion was issued: “Counsel for the petitioner states that the petitioner has only 25 days to superannuate. He is going to retire on 31.5.2008. Vide order dated 24.4.2008, he has been asked to look after the work in the Headquarter at Chandigarh. It virtually amounts to his transfer from Panipat to Chandigarh.” We have seen the original record. We are of the view that there exists no administrative reasons to pass the impugned order. Petitioner is going to superannuate on May 31, 2008. At this stage, it is not justified to ask him to travel from Panipat to Chandigarh to look after the work in the CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO. 7378 OF 2008 -2- headquarter. Consequently, this writ petition is allowed and the order under challenge is set aside. ( Jasbir Singh ) Judge ( K. C. Puri ) May 08, 2008. Judge DKC
