The District Education Officer, Muzaffarpur ---------------------------------- 4 21.12.2011 Petitioner’s prayer in this writ application is for a direction to the respondents to consider her application for transfer sympathetically on the ground that she has remained posted in Barahiya as Assistant Teacher in a school since last about 28 years and now with advance of age she is not keeping good health and suffering from many ailments due to which she wants her transfer in some school at Muzaffarpur which is her native place. From Annexure-5 it appears that her application dated 20.08.2006 could not be allowed in the meeting of the State Level Establishment Committee (for short ‘The Committee’) due to the reason that 2 for the school for which she had opted no vacancy report could reach the Committee for consideration of her application. It also appears that subsequently she filed another application which was pending for fresh consideration. Learned counsel for the petitioner draws attention of this Court to another application of the petitioner dated 16.06.2008, a copy whereof is Annexure-7, in which she has opted for her transfer either of the two schools in the Muzaffarpur mentioned in the application. Learned counsel submits that the petitioner is ready to join any school in Muzaffarpur as Assistant Teacher wherever the vacancy may be available. The medical certificates of the petitioner have also been annexed with the writ application to show that she is suffering from many ailments. In the circumstances, this Court considers it appropriate that the application of the petitioner should be considered by the Committee sympathetically taking into account her 3 ailments and her long stay in Barahiya. Hence, the Committee is directed to consider the application of the petitioner accordingly in its next meeting which may be held after the receipt/production of a copy of this order and take an appropriate decision. This writ application is disposed of with the aforesaid observations and directions. Arvind/ ( J.N. Singh, J.)
