Counsel for the Petitioner: MRMOHDVASI AHMED (not present) Counsel for the Respondent Nos.1 to 4: MR.S.S.VARMA (ADDL CGSC) The Court at the admission stage made the following: ORDER: To issue a Writ of Mandamus, directing the respondents to consider the request of the petitioner to give him choice posting either at Group Centre CRPF Hyderabad or Ranga Reddy, Secunderabad to enable the petitioner to provide proper and timely medical treatment to his ailing and multiple handicapped 5 years old daughter, the present writ petition is filed. None appears for the petitioner. The main prayer asked for by the petitioner is to give choice posting. A detailed counter affidavit has been filed on behalf of respondents. The respondents contend that the petitioner has already been exercised his choice of posting as he was given posting in Hyderabad from August, 1996 to January, 2003. Once the petitioner already exercised his choice of posting, he cannot ask again for choice of posting. No right of the petitioner has been infringed by way of his transfer. The transfer is incidental of service, but not in violation of service conditions of the petitioner. The transfer is not by way of any punishment, and it is only on administration grounds. The order of transfer does not suffer from any incurable legal infirmities so as to call for interference by this Court. The writ petition is devoid of merits. Therefore, the Writ Petition is dismissed. No order as to costs. Dated: 22.03.2005 Dsr ASSISTANT REGISTRAR To: 1.
