THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY W.P.No.18441 of 2005 Dated: 13.09.2005 K.Brahmaiah and another --------- Petitioners The Commissioner of Intermediate Education, Hyderabad and others -------- Respondents ORDER: This writ petition is filed obviously at the instance of a Junior Lecturer, who was sought to be transferred from one college to another, through proceedings, dated 03.08.2005. The 2nd respondent, Regional Joint Director of Intermediate Education, Guntur, conducted inspection in the various Government and Aided Colleges within his jurisdiction. On finding that the strength in the Government Junior College, Inamadugu, Nellore District, is meager and the number of Junior Lecturers is in excess of the required strength, he directed the transfer of Sri Ch.Ravindranath, Junior Lecturer in Zoology, from that College to the Government Junior College, Gudur, in the same District. The petitioners, who claim to be parents of students studying in Government Junior College, Inamadugu, complain that on account of transferring the said lecturer, the Junior college is removing the students from its rolls and directing them to be admitted into other colleges. The action of the respondents is challenged in this writ petition. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Government Pleader for Higher Education. There is hardly any material before this Court, which discloses that the respondents are taking any steps to shift the students. Transfer of lecturers, be it, on account of their having become surplus or on administrative grounds, is always within the discretion of the respondents. Mere transfer of one lecturer cannot be said to have resulted in the Junior College itself becoming defunct. Unless the petitioners or their children are issued any proceedings, requiring them to join in another college, they cannot be said to have any grievance. Therefore, the writ petition is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. _________ 13.09.2005 Jsu
