As per Annexure P-4, attached by petitioner Jitender Thakur with his petition, petitioner Sagri Devi, has remained in and around Balh within a radius of 8 K.M. since 1998 and thus petitioner Sagri Devi never served out of the radius of 25 K.M. Therefore, the petitioner cannot have any grievance in regard to the transfer made. However, there is substance in the plea raised by petitioner Sagri Devi that she has to look after her old mother-in-law. That grievance and any other grievances, if any, petitioner Sagri Devi, shall put up before respondent No. 2 in the representation to be filed by her within a period of two weeks. Petitioner Sagri Devi shall file the representation along with a copy of this judgment as well as the copy of the writ petition making out the grievances in her representation. The said representation shall be decided by respondent No. 2 within a period of one month from the date of receipt of the representation. Needless to say that private respondent Jitender Thakur in CWP No. 3211 of 2011 and petitioner in CWP No. 3682 of 2011, shall be permitted to join at the transferred station and petitioner Sagri Devi shall not be compelled to join her duties at the new place of posting till her representation is decided and she shall be at liberty to avail leave of the kind due. In case, petitioner Jitender Thakur joins at the new place of posting, petitioner Sagri Devi shall be relieved since two persons cannot be allowed to work at the same place. 2. In view of the above observations, the writ petition stands disposed of, so also the pending miscellaneous application(s), if any. Copy Dasti. ( V.K. Ahuja ), June 01, 2011 Judge (BSS) 3
