IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) PRESENT THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION NO : 22560 of 2006 Dated 3rd November, 2006 Between C.Suryanarayana Raju ….Petitioner and The Principal Secretary, Government of AP, YAT & C DEPT & VC & MD (FAC), SAAP, Hyderabad and anr. ….Respondkents. THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION NO : 22560 of 2006 ORDER: The petitioner, who is working as Groundsman in the Sports Authority of Andhra Pradesh, has questioned the order dated 14-10- 2006, transferring him to Chittoor. The impugned order is questioned mainly on the ground that the said transfer is in violation of the orders issued by the Government in G.O.Msn.No.279, dated 23-09-1006. It is stated that the children of the petitioner are studying ITI Electrical and Intermediate first year and as the impugned order of transfer is passed in the middle of the academic year, lot of inconvenience and hardship will be caused to him. So far as G.O.Ms.No. 279, dated 23-9-2006 is concerned, the Government has issued the said order in the shape of guidelines to avoid large scale transfers of government servants during the academic year. It does not prevent the authorities from effecting transfers on individual basis having regard to administrative exigencies. In that view of the matter, it cannot be said that the impugned order is in violation of the orders issued by the Government in G.O.Ms.No. 279, dated 23-9-2006. I do not see any valid ground to interfere with the impugned order, which appears to be issued on administrative grounds. The Writ Petition is devoid of merits and is accordingly dismissed. However, it is made clear that if the petitioner is having any grievance, it is open for him to submit a representation to the respondents. If such representation is filed, the respondents shall consider the same uninfluenced by the order passed by this Court in this Writ Petition. No order as to costs. ----------------------------------- JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY DATE: 03-11-2006. Msnr.
