CIVIL SURGEON CUM CHIEF MEDICAL OFFICER, SAHARSA ----------- 2 16/05/2011 Though no legal infirmity as such has been pointed out against the order of transfer of the petitioner but he has raised a humanitarian problem to support a request for transfer near Patna. In absence of any adjudication to be made on the issue raised as such, such request can be best entertained by the authorities concerned, more so when the petitioner is to superannuate in another ten months. If the petitioner files an application with a request and there is a provision to accommodate people - 2 - on the verge of their retirement, such request may be considered in the totality and a decision taken and communicated to the petitioner within one month of such application being filed. This writ application is disposed of with the observation aforesaid without expressing any opinion on the merits of the stand of the petitioner for his transfer. AMIN/ (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
