CW 189/10 //1// In the High Court of Judicature for Rajasthan Jaipur Bench ** Civil Writ Petition No.189/2010 Dev Karan Saini Versus AVVNL & Ors. Date of Order : 11/01/10 Hon'ble Mr. Justice Ajay Rastogi Mr. Sunil Kr. Singodia, for petitioner Petitioner while working as Jr. Accountant was transferred from Churu to Jhunjhunu – pursuant to which he joined on 25/05/1998 as is evident from joining report (Ann.3) and after more than 11 years of having remained at one place in Jhunjhunu, has been transferred to Surajgarh vide order dt. 21/12/2009 ((Ann.6). Counsel submits that transfer order impugned has been passed in order to accommodate respondent-6 (Chandra Bhan Verma) who was earlier transferred to Surajgarh vide order dt.22/10/09 and further vide order dt. 16/12/09 has again been re-transferred to Jhunjhunu. That apart, petitioner being member & President of district Union Jhunjhunu could not have been transferred by respondents. In support, Counsel placed reliance upon judgment of this Court in Ram Charan Sharma Vs. State (2000(2) RLR 364). In the opinion of this Court, submissions made by Counsel are without merit CW 189/10 //2// for the reason that transfer is an incidence of service, and having remained posted for 11 years at one place in Jhunjhunu, petitioner has been transferred to Surajgarh vide order impugned and he cannot claim a lien to continue within district Jhunjhunu for all times to come. It is not the case of petitioner that the authority which has passed the order impugned is biased or there is any violation of statutory rules and in absence whereof, if the authority has taken decision to transfer him in the interest of administration, the action cannot be sad to be arbitrary calling for interference. Judgment on which Counsel placed reliance, is of no assistance for the reason that it was a case where in order to curb Union activities, all of its office bearers were transferred which was considered by this Court as unfair labour practice; while in the instant case, petitioner has been transferred after having remained at one place for about 11 years and merely because he is a President of the district Union, it will not debar the authority to transfer him, if required in the interest of administration. Consequently, writ petition fails and is hereby dismissed. (Ajay Rastogi), J. K.Khatri/p2/189CW2010Jn11-Ds.doc
