Counsel for the Petitioner:MR.S.GOPAL RAO Counsel for the Respondent No.: MR.A.RAJASHEKAR REDDY (ASST SOLICITOR GEN) The Court made the following : ORAL ORDER: Heard the learned Assistant Solicitor General on behalf of the respondents. The writ petitioner, who is working as Nursing Assistant at Group Center Hospital, CRPF, Hyderabad, has instituted this writ petition challenging the validity of the order dated 1-5-2009 transferring her to Bhopal in Madhya Pradesh. It is stated that the writ petitioner while working at Aligarh in Uttar Pradesh came to be transferred to the Group Center Hospital, CRPF at Hyderabad during the year 2006 and since she has completed three years of service, while affecting large number of transfers, she has also been transferred from out of Hyderabad to Bhopal through the impugned order. The grievance of the writ petitioner is that she unfortunately lost her husband and thus was deprived of necessary assistance. Secondly, she has been undergoing treatment for a kidney ailment at the Nizams Institute of Medical Sciences, Hyderabad. Hence she should not have been transferred to Bhopal. Both these grounds hardly warrant any scope for interference with a purely administrative exercise carried out by the Central Reserve Police Force. It is not in dispute that Central Reserve Police Force is an armed force of the Union and they need lot of manpower assistance and in particular in their hospitals, as their men and force get frequently injured in action. The writ petitioner being a Nursing Assistant is entitled to take such medical assistance as is needed and required, at the hospitals where such facilities are available. It is not as if no hospital facilities at Bhopal are available. In a disciplined organization like that of the CRPF, transfers from one place to another, after completion of a reasonable period of three years of service at one station, is a common phenomena and feature. Since no exception is to be taken with the administrative exercise carried out, the writ petition is dismissed. However, this order shall not come in the way of the authorities considering the representation said to have been submitted by the writ petitioner seeking a compassionate view to be taken in her case. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed. No costs. ________________________________ NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO, J 2nd June, 2009 GRR
