1 S.B.CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO.4015/2008 Dhyam Chand Dalal Vs. State of Raj. & Ors. Date of Order :: 9.7.2008 HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE GOVIND MATHUR Mr. Mukesh Rajpurhoit, for the petitioner. Mr. M.S.Singhvi, for the respondent No.3. ... By this petition for writ a challenge is given to the order dated 28.6.2008 transferring the petitioner, an Insepctor, Land Records, from Udaipur City (Girwa) to Ishwal (Girwa) on the ground of non-compliance of the instructions given by the Board of Revenue under the notification dated 30.1.1993 prescribing that no Land Revenue Inspector shall be transferred within a period of two years without having specific permission by the Divisional Commissioner. It is also contended by learned counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner is deputed with the election work, and therefore, he is not required to be transferred. I do not find any substance in the argument advanced. As per the Rule 173 of the Rajasthan Land Revenue (Land Records) Rules, 1957 the competent authority to transfer a Land Revenue Inspector is the Collector, and therefore, the discretion given to the Collector under the statute is not required to be interfered by administrative instructions. In view of it, the allegations regarding non-compliance of the instructions 2 given under the Circular dated 30.1.1993 is of no consequence. I also do not find any force in the contention that the petitioner is deputed with election work, therefore, he can not be transferred. The work relating to election was given to him being posted as Land Revenue Inspector, Udaipur City, (Girwa) and such work can be given to any other person by the competent authority. For the reasons stated above this petition for writ is having no merit and same is therefore dismissed. (GOVIND MATHUR), J. Jgoyal
