CWP No.487 of 2009 4.3.2009 Present: Mr.Bimal Gupta, counsel for the petitioner. Mr.P.K.Sharma, Addl.A.G for the respondents No.1 to 3 By means of this writ petition filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, the petitioner has challenged the transfer order Annexure P-3 dated 16.2.2009 whereby he has been transferred from Government Senior Secondary School, Samaila to Government Senior Secondary School, Chiuni. Admitted facts of the case are that the petitioner after having worked as part time water carrier for some time in Government Senior Secondary School, Samaila was regularized as Peon in Government Senior Secondary School, Samaila in November, 2000. He was thereafter, promoted as Laboratory Attendant and transferred to Government Senior Secondary School, Kashmaila in June, 2007. He joined service at Kashmaila on 14.6.2007. In May, 2008, the petitioner was ordered to be transferred to Baga Chanogi Thach. However, the petitioner did not join at his place of posting and this order of his transfer was cancelled and at his own request the petitioner was again transferred to Government Senior Secondary School, Samaila on 17.12.2008. The distance from Samaila to Kashmaila is only about 6 kilometres. It is apparent that the petitioner has managed to stay at Samaila or Kashmaila which are only at a distance of 6 kilometres for a period of seven years. The petitioner has no vested right to stay at Samaila or Kashmaila. Transfer is an incidence of service and the petitioner is bound to join duty at the place where he has been transferred. We find no reasons to interfere with this transfer order. The petition is, therefore, rejected. ( Deepak Gupta ), Judge March 4, 2009 (V.K.Ahuja), Judge (m)
