Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) The petitioner is a Multipurpose Health Supervisor (Female) who has been transferred from Sub Centre, Gandey Ke Jhoney, PHC Bham, Gurdaspur to P.H.C. Guru Harsahai, District Ferozepur vide the impugned order dated 28.7.2011 (Annexure P-6). It is averred that the new place of posting is about 150 kilometers away from her house which, according to the petitioner, is likely to cause extreme hardship to her and her family. The transfer being an incident of service, no interference by this Court is called for merely on the ground of hardship. However, the competent authority shall be under obligation to consider the mitigating circumstances, if any, which may warrant cancellation of the petitioner's CWP No.15117 of 2011 [2] transfer. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of with an observation that the petitioner may submit a representation before the competent authority within a period of one week which shall be considered sympathetically and disposed of within a period of one month thereafter. Ordered accordingly. Dasti. August 26, 2011 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
