PETITIONERS / APPELLANT. Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR THROUGH ITS PRINCIPAL SECRETARY, DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, GOVT. OF BIHAR, PATNA. 2. THE DEPUTY SECRETARY, DEPT. OF HEALTH, GOVT. OF BIHAR, PATNA. 3. THE DISTRICT MAGISTRATE, AURANGABAD. 4. THE CIVIL SURGEON CUM THE CHIEF MEDICAL OFFICER, AURANGABAD. 5. DR. RAVI RANJAN S/O NOT KNOWN DEPUTED ON THE POST OF MEDICAL OFFICER OF THE DISTRICT TUBERCULOSIS CENTRE, AURANGABAD. . . . RESPONDENTS / RESPONDENTS. ----------- 2/ 06.01.2011 Heard Mr. Devendra Kumar Sinha for the appellant, and Mrs. Vinita Singh, learned Assistant Counsel to Additional Advocate no.1. This appeal under Clause 10 of the Letters Patent of the High Court of Judicature at Patna raises a grievance with respect to the order dated 06.08.2010, passed by a learned Single Judge of this Court in C.W.J.C. No. 10404 of 2010 (Dr. Bikas Kumar Sinha Vs. The State of Bihar & Ors), whereby the writ petition has been dismissed, and the petitioner’s transfer / deputation order has been upheld. We have perused the materials on record and considered the submissions of learned counsel for the parties. It appears that the State Government transferred the appellant to the T. B. Centre, Aurangabad, for the reason that his doctor wife is also posted there. Later on, Government realized that the post on which the appellant was transferred in the T. B. Centre, was a physician’s post. In that view of the matter, for better utilization of his services, he has been 2 transferred / deputed to Sadar Block Hospital, Aurangabad. In view of the reason assigned in the impugned order, and also for the reason that the appellant after his transfer continues in the township of Aurangabad itself. We do not find any fault with the impugned order. In the result, we do not find any merit in this appeal. It is accordingly dismissed. Uday/ (S.K. Katriar, J.) (S. P. Singh, J.)
