MC 2964/2008 BEFORE HON’BEL THE CHEIF JUSTICE MR J CHELAMESWAR HON’BLE MR JUSTICE IA ANSARI (Ansari,J.) Heard Mr AK Goswami, learned Senior Counsel , for the applicant, and M r. B Benerjee, learned Government Advocate, Arunachal Pradesh, for the opposite party No.1. Heard also Mr. T.Michi, learned counsel on behalf of the opposite pa rty Nos 2 and 3. This application has been filed by the respondent No.1 in Writ Appeal No.294/200 8, which has arisen out of the judgment and order, dated 20-08-2008, passed in W P (C ) No.297(AP)/2008, whereby the order , dated 04-08-2008(which stood impugn ed, in the writ petition), was set aside and quashed allowing thereby the writ petitioner( i.e., the applicant in this miscellaneous application) to remain pos ted at Pasighat, as Assistant Engineer, in terms of the order, dated 14-07-2008, passed by the Government. By making this miscellaneous application, the applicant, who was the pet itioner in WP( C) No.297(AP)/2008 and who is respondent No.1 in the Writ Appeal No.294/2008, has sought for modification of the order, dated 12-09-2008, passed in Writ Appeal No.294/2008, whereby, while admitting the appeal, this Court also directed status quo, as on 12-09-2008, to be maintained with regard to the post ing of the appellants. Having heard the learned counsel for the parties and upon perusal of the materia ls on record including the order, which stands impugned in this writ appeal, we find that there is no dispute that in terms of the order , dated 14-07-2008, afo rementioned, the writ petitioner had already submitted his joining report at his new place of posting, at Pasighat, before the writ petition was disposed of. In fact, on a pointed query made by this Court, Mr. T Michi, learned counsel for t he appellants, has submitted that though the present applicant (i.e., the respon dent No.1 in the writ appeal) , had submitted his joining report at Pasighat, t he charge had not been handed over to him by the appellants. On further query ma de by this Court, Mr. Michi could not show any Government Policy or Rules, which require any special order, other than an order of transfer, directing the trans feree to hand over the charge on his transfer. Notwithstanding, therefore, the f act that the appellants have not handed over the charge to the applicant, the ap plicant, having acted in terms of the transfer order aforementioned, needs to b e allowed to continue to remain posted, at Pasighat, until further order. In view of the fact that the present applicant(i.e., the respondent No.1 in writ appeal) had already submitted his joining report and the order, pursuant to whi ch the applicant had submitted his report at Pasighat, has been maintained by t he order, dated 20-08-2008 , passed by the learned Single Judge in the writ peti tion, we are of the view that the order, dated 12-09-2008, passed in Writ Appeal No.294/2008, needs to be modified. We accordingly direct that the present appli cant (i.e., the respondent No.1 in the writ appeal), shall continue to remain po sted, at Pasighat, until further order, notwithstanding the fact that the appell ants claim that the applicant has not been, formally, handed over the charge. With the above modification in the order, dated 20-08-2008, in the writ appeal, this miscellaneous case shall stand disposed of.
