THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.12648 of 2010 ORDER: In this writ petition, petitioner, who is presently working as Inspector Auditor of Wakfs, Vijayawada, Krishna District, questioned the Office Order bearing F.No.E1/06/2010-S, dated 31.05.2010 passed by the first respondent - Chief Executive Officer, Andhra Pradesh State Wakf Board, Hyderabad, transferring the services of the petitioner to East Godavari. The only ground on which the petitioner questioned the impugned order of transfer is that the Wakf Board issued a Circular vide F.No.E1/06/2010, dated 13.05.2010 giving options to the Inspector Auditors to give their places of willingness to work and the petitioner has chosen the places, namely, Krishna and Guntur Districts. It is submitted that pursuant to such Circular instructions, counselling was done, but contrary to the same, the first respondent passed the impugned order transferring the petitioner to East Godavari. On instructions, it is submitted by the learned counsel for the respondents that as much as at the places, which the petitioner gave willingness, there are no vacancies, as such, the petitioner was transferred to East Godavari. Merely because willingness is asked for, giving choices Districts, it cannot be understood that the same binds the employer to post the employee in such places only. When the willingness is asked for, the employer shall keep in mind the options exercised by the employee so as to consider his posting but if for any administrative reasons, such places are not available, it is always open for the employer to post the employee at other places. In that view of the matter and as much as the impugned order is passed on administrative grounds, I do not find any illegality, which warrants interference in this writ petition filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. The writ petition is accordingly, dismissed. No order as to costs. ______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 8th JUNE, 2010. kvni
