CWP 12034/09 1 In the High Court of Judicature for Rajasthan Jaipur Bench, Jaipur. ** Civil Writ Petition No. 12034/09 Smt. Santra Vs. The State & ors.. Date of Order ::: 07/10/09 Hon'ble Mr. Justice Ajay Rastogi Mr. Tanveer Ahmed, for petitioner Petitioner was appointed on contract basis on a consolidated sum of Rs. 3500/- per month as Female Health Worker vide order Anx. 1 dt. 04/04/2003 passed by the Chief Medical and Health Officer, Nagaur and since then she is continuously working on the said post. However, after working for more than six years, the Chief Medical and Health Officer, Nagaur vide its order dated 08th September, 2009 has reshuffled certain employees within district. The grievance of the petitioner is that as per the orders of the Principal Secretary, Medical and Health persons appointed on contract basis are not to be transferred. As such, the very order passed by the Chief Medical and Health Officer, Nagaur transferring employees within district is against the order of the Government dated 26th August, 2009. It is not the case of the petitioner that the Chief Medical and Health Officer, Nagaur is not CWP 12034/09 2 competent under Rules to transfer the employees within its own district. The petitioner, as appears from the record, after working for more than six years, has been reshuffled by the Chief Medical and Health Officer, Nagaur within district under order impugned dated 08/09/2009 which is certainly in the interest of administration to transfer employees who are working under his competence and jurisdiction. So far as the order of the State Government Anx.2 dt. 26/08/2009 is concerned, it only lays down the guidelines but it does not have any statutory force and if at all a subordinate officer has violated an administrative order, that can be a cause for which the petitioner can make a representation but unless the action is in violation of any statutory rules, administrative orders of the State Government will not supersede/supplant the rules by which the service conditions of the employees are governed. Consequently, this Court finds no substance in the petition and it is accordingly dismissed. (Ajay Rastogi), J. Raghu/12034-cw-2009-final.doc CWP 12034/09 3
