It is only to harass and humiliate the petitioner for being an active member of the Trade Union and for also against the interest of the Office bearers of the Trade Union. The said submission cannot be entertained by this Court for the reason that a mere reading of the impugned order clearly shows that the transfer order has been issued for administrative reasons. Further, the submission advanced by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner's wife is a cancer patient and is also having school going daughter who should be attended by him also did not inspire the court for the reason that the petitioner has not been transferred to far away place. It appears that the place to which the petitioner has been transferred is situated 30 Kms away from his residence. 2. In that view of the matter, this Court finds no merit in the Writ Petition and the writ petition is liable to be dismissed and accordingly dismissed. Consequently, connected Miscellaneous Petitions are dismissed. No costs.
