IN THE HIGH COURT OF HIMACHAL PRADESH, SHIMLA. CWP No.1915 of 2010. Decided on: May 10, 2010 Ranjeev Kumar ….. Petitioner. Versus State of Himachal Pradesh and others …… Respondents. Coram The Hon’ble Mr. Justice Kurian Joseph, Chief Justice The Hon’ble Mr. Justice R.B. Misra, Judge. For the Petitioner : Mr. Tarlok Chauhan, Advocate. For the Respondents: Mr. R.K. Sharma, Sr. Addl. Advocate General for respondents No.1 to 3. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Justice Kurian Joseph, C.J. (Oral) CMP No. 2894 of 2010 Allowed. CWP No. 1915 of 2010. The Writ petition is filed with the following prayers:- “a) Office order dated 16/1/2010 (Annexure-P/2) may kindly be quashed and set aside; b) The respondents be directed to implement the order dated 10/12/2009 (Annexure-P/1) or in the alternative the petitioner be posted at three stations of his choice namely 1) Bilaspur Division No. II, HP PWD, Distt. Bilaspur, 2) Namhol Sub Division HP PWD under Bilaspur Division No. II Distt. 2 Bilaspur and 3) Jukhala N.H. Sub Division under the N.H. Division Hamirpur, Distt. Hamirpur (HP).” 2. It is seen that the petitioner had presently been transferred to non- tribal area, apparently in view long service rendered by him in the tribal area as per Annexure P-1 but the same has been cancelled as per Annexure P-2. According to the petitioner, and it appears so, that the petitioner as per guidelines, is entitled for transfer. Since the petitioner has also pointed out stations where there are apparently vacancies, there will be a direction to the second respondent to look into the matter and take appropriate action in the matter of transfer of the petitioner to non-tribal area, keeping in mind also the places indicated by the petitioner. The needful in this regard shall be done within a period of three weeks from the date of production of a copy of this judgment alongwith a copy of the Writ Petition. 3. The Writ petition is disposed of, so also the pending application. Dasti copy on usual terms. (Justice Kurian Joseph), Chief Justice May 10, 2010 (Justice R.B. Misra), (rks) Judge.
