1 S.B.CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO. 2887/2007 All India RPF Association Vs. Union of India & Ors. Date of Order :: 12.5.2008 HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE GOVIND MATHUR Mr. K.L. Thakur, for the petitioner. Mr. Kamal Dave, for the respondents. ... By this petition for writ a challenge is given to the order dated 5.4.2007 passed by the Director General, Railway Protection Force making several modifications to the Standing Order No.70. By the order aforesaid the tenure of retention at one station by the Inspector posted as Post Commander and for enrolled members of Railway Protection Force/Railway Protection Security Force is prescribed. The contention of learned counsel for the petitioner is that the modification made is arbitrary as the tenure prescribed was for five years. As per reply to the writ petition filed on behalf of the respondents Rule 93 of the Railway Protection Force Rules, 1987 the Director General may prescribe tenure of posting for various ranks in various places. In the instant matter the Director General while exercising the powers as given under Rule 93 has modified the tenure of stay 2 prescribed under the standing orders. The power exercised by the Director General are looking to the service exigency and such an administrative decision is not required to be interfered by this Court in its extra ordinary jurisdiction. From perusal of the pleadings and documents annexed thereto I am satisfied that the notification made is not based on any extraneous consideration and is purely in service exigency. This petition for writ, therefore, is having no merit and the same is dismissed. (GOVIND MATHUR), J. Jgoyal
