Judgment on Board
07/09/2022
Heard Mr. Sunil Sahu, learned counsel, appearing for the
appellant as well as Ms. Astha Shukla, learned Government Advocate,
appearing for the respondents.
2. This appeal is presented against an order dated 18.08.2022
passed by the learned Single Judge in WPS No. 5468 of 2022.
3. The writ petition was filed challenging the transfer order dated
01.08.2022 whereby the appellant, who is an Assistant Veterinary
Surgeon, was transferred from Veterinary Hospital, Ambagarh Chowki,
District Rajnandgaon to Veterinary Hospital, Orchha, District
Narayanpur.
4. A perusal of the order of the learned Single Judge would go to
show that the counsel for the appellant sought liberty to file a
representation before the concerned respondent authorities and
accordingly, prayer was allowed and a direction was issued to the
authorities that in the event the appellant files a representation, same
may be considered and decided in accordance with the posting policy of
the Government.
5. Mr. Sahu submits that the learned Single Judge, while
permitting filing of a representation, ought to have granted stay of the
order impugned.
6. In the appeal, grounds have been taken that the learned Single
Judge did not consider the transfer policy and the merits of the case.
There is no averment in the memo of appeal that the submission as
recorded by the learned Single Judge was not made before the learned
Single Judge or that the appellant had also prayed for stay of the transfer
order till the time the representation is decided. It also does not appear
from the order of the learned Single Judge that the appellant had prayed
for adjudication of the writ petition on merits.
7. Accordingly, we find no justification to entertain this appeal. The
appeal is dismissed.
