S.B. C.W.P. No.4131/2008 Kumari Lata Goyal v. State of Raj. & others Date of Order:06.01.2009 HON'BLE MR JUSTICE GOVIND MATHUR Mr C.P. Trivedi, for the petitioner Mr R.J. Punia, for the respondents By this petition for writ, a challenge is given to order dated 28th June, 2008 whereby the petitioner has been transferred from Government Upper Primary School, Kumharon Ki Dhani, Mandor, District- Jodhpur to Government Upper Primary School, Bhawad, Osiyan, District- Jodhpur. The contention of learned counsel for petiioner is that the State Government is having no competence to effect transfer of a Teacher from one Panchayat Samiti to another Panchayat Samiti. I do not find any merit in the argument advanced. The competence to effect such transfer is available to the State Governemnt under sec.89 (8A) of the Rajasthan Panchayati Raj Act, 1994 read with rule 290 (2) of the Rajasthan Panchayati Raj Rules, 1996. In view of it, I do not find any merit in this petition for writ. Accordingly, the same is dismissed. If the petitioner is having any grievance with the transfer impugned, she may agitate her case before competent authority by way of submitting a representation. [GOVIND MATHUR],J. mma
