HIGH COURT OF HIMACHAL PRADESH, SHIMLA. CWP No. 8274 of 2011 Date of Decision: September 20, 2011 Chet Ram ……. Petitioner Versus State of H. P. & Ors. …….. Respondents. Coram: The Hon’ble Mr. Justice Kurian Joseph, Chief Justice. The Hon’ble Mr. Justice Sanjay Karol, Judge. For the petitioner : Mr. Kulbhushan Khajuria, Advocate. For the respondents/ : Mr. R. K. Bawa, A.G. with State Mr. Ankush Dass Sood, Addl.A.G. and Mr. J. K. Verma, Dy. A.G. Sanjay Karol, J. (oral) Petitioner has prayed mainly for the following relief:- “i) That the writ in the nature of certiorari may kindly be issued and the impugned order dated 9.9.2011 vide Annexure P-4 be quashed and set aside in the interest of justice and fair play.” 2. In terms of impugned order (Annexure P-4), petitioner stands transferred from Bilaspur Divn. No.II to Bilaspur Divn. No.I. The transfer, in effect, is from one building to another building within the town. Posting/adjustment of an employee, based on administrative exigencies, is a matter which is to be considered and decided by the authorities alone. Unless it is a proven or established case of malafides/arbitrariness, no interference in exercise of power under Article 226 of the Constitution of India is warranted. Courts are normally loath in interfering with the 2 orders of transfer/adjustment. No case of malafides/arbitrariness is made out. As such, we see no reason to interfere with the impugned order of transfer. Petition is consequently dismissed. (Justice Kurian Joseph), Chief Justice. ( Justice Sanjay Karol ), Judge.
