TO JUDGE TSS P.N.Ravindran, J. ================== W.P.(C) No.2037 of 2009 ===================== Dated this the 3rd day of April, 2009. JUDGMENT Heard both sides. In this Writ Petition, the petitioner who is working as Primary Department Teacher in Government Mopla Vocational Higher Secondary School, Quilandy challenges his transfer by Ext.P2 order dated 13.1.2009 to G.F.U.P.S., Quilandy. The second respondent is the teacher transferred in the petitioner's place at Government Mopla Vocational Higher Secondary School, Quilandy. In my opinion, transfer from one school to another in the same station cannot be characterised as arbitrary or discriminatory. It cannot also be said that transfer from one school to another in the same station will cause any inconvenience to the petitioner. I am therefore not inclined to entertain the challenge to Ext.P2. The Writ Petition fails and is accordingly dismissed. P.N.Ravindran, Judge. ess
