THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No. 11863 OF 2008 O R D E R: The petitioner is working as Computer Terminal Operator, in the Bank of India. In August 2006, she was transferred from SSI Branch to Overseas Branch in Visakhapatnam, on her request, on health grounds. The Zonal Manager of the Bank transferred the petitioner to Gajuwaka Branch, vide orders dated 5.6.2008. The same is challenged in this writ petition. The petitioner states that her husband is working in one of the branches in Visakhapatnam, and her posting at Gajuwaka would cause hardship to her. It is stated that her daughter is suffering from Leukemia and her attention is needed during the treatment. The recent background, in which the impugned order came to be passed, is also stated, particularly in relation to her transfer to Samalkot branch. Heard Sri K. Sarvabhouma Rao, learned counsel for the petitioner and Sri S. Surya Prakash Rao, learned counsel for the respondents. It is no doubt true that the present transfer of the petitioner is preceded, by filing of W.P.No.24523 of 2007 by the petitioner, when she was transferred to Samalkot Branch. The writ petition was allowed and her transfer to Samalkot was set aside. It was left open to the 1st respondent to examine the matter, afresh, and that in case, transfer of the petitioner is inevitable, she may be posted in any of the branches, in or around Visakhapatnam. It is in this context that the 1st respondent transferred the petitioner to Gajuwaka branch, which is admittedly around Visakhapatnam. Strictly speaking, no exception can be taken to the impugned order, inasmuch as it accords with the directions issued by this court in W.P.No.24523 of 2007. In case, the petitioner is put to any hardship, on account of her transfer to Gajuwaka, it shall always be open to her to make a representation to the 1st respondent. This, of course, must be preceded by her joining the branch at Gajuwaka. There is no reason to believe that the 1st respondent could not examine the representation of the petitioner, or appreciate the problems expressed by her, from proper perspective. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, leaving it open to the petitioner to make a representation to the 1st respondent, after joining the branch at Gajuwaka. The 1st respondent shall, in turn, examine the representation, dispassionately, and pass appropriate orders within two weeks from the date of presentation of the representation. There shall be no order as to costs. ________________ 23rd June 2008 PAN
