Deepak Gupta, J.(Oral) By means of this writ petition the petitioner has challenged the order dated 28th May, 2008 whereby he has been transferred from the Patwar Circle, Chhatar to Patwar Circle Khanyol-Bagra, Tehsil Karsog vice respondent No.3. The main ground of the challenge was that the petitioner has not completed his normal tenure at Patwar Circle, Chhattar. Stay order was granted in favour of the petitioner on 3.6.2008. The petitioner continued at his place of posting by virtue of the stay order. We find that the petitioner was actually transferred to Patwar Circle, Chhattar in the year 2006 and has, therefore, completed his normal tenure of three years at this place. The petition has, therefore, become infructuous and is disposed of accordingly. Stay order is vacated. ( Deepak Gupta ) Judge July 15, 2009 (Surinder Singh) (m) Judge 2
