The petitioner’s grievance is that his daughter is handicapped and she has to be taken to hospital at Dehradun, regularly for physiotherapy exercises.

In the present case, no right appears to have been violated which attracts powers of this Court, to be exercise under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. 4) Undisputedly, the petitioner’s services are transferable and the transfer order does not suffer from malice and arbitrariness, nor is it against the rules. 5) In the circumstances, the writ petition is dismissed in limine with the observation that the petitioner may make a representation to the concerned authority for redressal of his grievances, within a period of one week, and the concerned authority may pass appropriate orders on the same within one month, thereafter.
