IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl.Misc.No.M-32896 of 2009 (O&M) Date of decision : 30.11.2009 Major Singh ....Petitioner through Mr.H.S.Rakhra, Advocate Versus State of Punjab and others ... Respondents through none CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE MAHESH GROVER .... MAHESH GROVER, J.(Oral) The instant petition has been filed with a prayer that the petitioner be transferred from Bathinda Jail to Sub-Jail at Barnala. I am afraid the petition and the prayer made therein is totally misconceived as this is purely an administrative function and the prayer cannot be granted unless some substantive material is shown to this court which shows arbitrariness or prejudice caused to the petitioner. Since the court is of the opinion that no such material has been shown which could persuade it to exercise its jurisdiction, the instant petition is disposed of with the direction to respondent No.2 to look into the representation made by the petitioner attached to this petition as Annexure P-4 and take an appropriate decision in this regard. 30.11.2009 (MAHESH GROVER) JUDGE dss
