Chancellor, Raj Bhawan, Patna ---------------------------------- 4 13.12.2011 In this writ application petitioner has challenged an office order of the University transferring him from a Constituent College in Patna to a Constituent College in Varsaliganj. In paragraph 15 of the writ application petitioner has specifically asserted that he was transferred only due to the reason that he had become senior enough in the College at Patna to become Professor In-charge which the respondents wanted to deprive him off. Hence, he has been shifted to another College. No counter affidavit has been filed in the case by the respondent University in spite of time granted by this Court. This Court would have stayed the operation of the order, but the fact is that due to 2 passage of time petitioner has joined in Varsaliganj College under protest. Learned counsel for the University points out that the petitioner has filed a representation before the Chancellor of the University, vide Annexure-5. Reminders of the same have also been sent, vide Annexure-7. He submits that the writ application may be disposed of with a request to the Chancellor to pass final orders on the representation of the petitioner after hearing the parties. Learned counsel for the petitioner agrees to it. In the circumstances, this writ application is disposed of with a request to the Chancellor to consider the representation of the petitioner and take a final decision on the same, after hearing the parties, preferably within three months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order.
