IN THE HIGH COURT OF HIMACHAL PRADESH, SHIMLA. CWP No. 5005 of 2011. Decided on: 14th July, 2011. Chander Bhan. …Petitioner. Vs. State of H.P. and others. …Respondents. Coram The Hon’ble Mr. Justice Kurian Joseph, Chief Justice The Hon’ble Mr. Justice V.K. Sharma, Judge. For the petitioner : Mr. Bimal Gupta, Advocate. For the Respondents: Mr. Ankush Dass Sood, Addl. AG. for respondents No.1 & 2. Mr. Pushpinder Singh Jaswal, Advocate, for respondent No.3. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Justice Kurian Joseph, C.J. (Oral) The petitioner has approached this Court challenging the order of transfer. It is seen that the petitioner is due to retire on 31.1.2012. Though the State has taken the contention that the petitioner has been continuing for long at the present station or around, in view of the fact that now only six months are left to the petitioner to retire from service, unless for extreme administrative ground, it may not be proper to disturb the petitioner. There is no such case for the State. Therefore, this writ petition is disposed of making it clear that the petitioner be permitted to continue at the present station till his retirement and on his 2 retirement, the private respondent as per the transfer order shall be accommodated in that station. 2. With the above observations, the writ petition is disposed of, so also the pending applications, if any. (Justice Kurian Joseph), Chief Justice 14th July, 2011. (Justice V.K. Sharma), (tr) Judge.
