IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C.W.P. No. 2815 of 2009 DATE OF DECISION : 01.05.2009 Surinder Kumar .... PETITIONER Versus Punjab State Electricity Board, Patiala and others ..... RESPONDENTS CORAM :- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SATISH KUMAR MITTAL Present: Mr. B.S. Bajwa, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. H.S. Grewal, Advocate, for the respondents. * * * SATISH KUMAR MITTAL , J. ( Oral ) The petitioner, who is working as Sub Station Attendant with the Punjab State Electricity Board – respondent No.1 and is posted at Wadala Granthian, has filed the instant petition challenging the order dated 1.1.2009, vide which he has been transferred from Wadala Granthian to Naushera Majja Singh. It is the case of the petitioner that the respondent Board has passed the impugned transfer order, totally in contravention of the order dated 28.4.2008, passed by this Court in CWP No. 2331 of 2008, vide which the respondents were directed not to transfer the petitioner for a period of one year from the date of order. The instant petition was filed on CWP No. 2815 of 2009 -2- 20.2.2009 and on 24.2.2009, when it was listed, this Court, while issuing notice of motion for today, stayed operation of the impugned order. Today, Shri H.S. Grewal, Advocate, has appeared on behalf of the respondents and he has pointed out that the impugned order of transfer dated 1.1.2009 was immediately withdrawn on 3.2.2009 and due intimation in this regard was sent to the office, where the petitioner was working. He further states that in view of the said order, the petitioner was never disturbed from his place of posting. In spite of this, without disclosing all these facts, the petitioner has filed the instant petition. After hearing counsel for the parties, I am of the opinion that the petitioner has un-necessarily wasted the time of the Court by not disclosing the fact that the impugned order of his transfer was already withdrawn and he was not disturbed from his place of posting, regarding which due intimation was sent to his office. In view of this, the instant writ petition is dismissed with costs of Rs. 2,000/-. May 01, 2009 ( SATISH KUMAR MITTAL ) ndj JUDGE
