IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.11274 of 2011 Sudhir Kumar Ojha, son of Sri Krishnadeo Ojha, resident of Village- Lahladpur Patahi, P.S. Muzaffarpur Sadar, District- Muzaffarpur ----- Petitioner. Versus 1. The State of Bihar through the Chief Secretary, Government of Bihar, Patna. 2. The Principal Secretary, Rural Development Department, Government of Bihar, Patna. 3. The Additional Secretary, Rural Development Department, Government of Bihar, Patna. ------- Respondents. ------------ 2. 14.7.2011 Heard Mr. Uma Kant Shukla for the petitioner, and Mr. Siddhartha Prasad, learned Assistant Counsel to Additional Advocate General No.4. The petitioner claims to be a social worker interested in the development and welfare of the State, and has preferred this writ petition in the nature of a public interest litigation seeking quashing of the order dated 30.6.2011, issued by the Government of Bihar, in the Department of Rural Development, by which 340 Block Development Officers have been transferred from one place to another. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that this is contrary to the relevant departmental circular which provides that not more than 10% of the cadre can be transferred at a time, and such mass transfer will operate 2 against the development and welfare projects of the State. We have perused the materials on record and considered the submissions of the learned counsel for the parties. By the order in question, the State Government has transferred its employees. Law is well settled that deployment of work-force is the prerogative of the employer who knows best the needs of the organization. This Court would desist from interfering with orders involving administrative discretion. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that individual transferees, who are aggrieved by the transfer order, may be permitted to file their representation(s) for disposal of the same on merits. Such contention raises strong suspicion that it is a malafide writ petition sponsored by individual transferees. The writ petition is dismissed. Vinay/ ( S. K. Katriar,J. ) ( Vikash Jain, J.)
