While, the petitioner No. 2 was initially appointed as Assistant Teacher (C.T.) Grade in Government Inter College Khersu District Pauri Garhwal. In the year 1986, he was transferred from Government Inter College Khersu District Pauri Garhwal to Rajkaiya Uchtar Madhamyik Vidhayala, Pida Dhanpur, District Pauri Garhwal (now in District Rudraprayag).

The respondent No. 3 vide impugned transfer order dated 30.06.2005 transferred the petitioner from Government Inter College Bidoli District Pauri Garhwal to Government Inter College Ghindwara District Pauri Garhwal. Feeling aggrieved by the aforesaid impugned transfer order dated 30.06.2005, the petitioner have preferred this writ petition before this Court. Heard learned counsel for the petitioners as well as learned standing counsel for the State and perused the record. Learned counsel for the petitioners has invited my attention towards the Government Order No. 718/XXIV(2)/2005 dated 13.05.2005 providing the Rules of Transfer of Teacher relating to Basic and Secondary Education. I do not find any force in the argument advanced by the learned counsel for the petitioner. In view of the submission advanced by the learned counsel for the petitioner as well as the documents filed by him along with this writ petition, I am of the opinion that the writ petition should be finally disposed of at this stage with the direction that the respondent No. 3 i.e. District Education Officer should decide the representation of the petitioner in the light of the Government Order which has been mentioned in the body of the judgment. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of finally. However, it is open for the petitioner to move representation before the respondent No. 3 within a period of 15 days along with certified copy of the judgment and the respondent No. 3 shall thereafter decide the representation of the petitioner within a period of 30 days by passing the speaking and reasoned order. 12.07.2005 ASWAL (B.C.
