W.A. No.19/2023
Sri Manik Tripura
.........Appellant(s).
VERSUS
The State of Tripura & others
.........Respondent(s).
For Appellant(s) : Mr. C.S. Sinha, Advocate. For Respondent(s) : Mr. Mangal Debbarma, Addl. G.A.
HON'BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE MR. APARESH KUMAR SINGH HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE T. AMARNATH GOUD
Order 17/04/2023 (Aparesh Kumar Singh, C.J.)
This writ appeal has been preferred against the judgment dated
24.01.2023 by which the prayer of the petitioner seeking interference in his
order of transfer on grounds of medical reasons that he is suffering from
Tuberculosis has been declined by the learned Single Judge.
The appellant has joined the place of posting in the meantime.
The cause of action, therefore, does not survive.
Mr. C.S. Sinha, learned counsel for the appellant, however,
submits that since the disease with which the appellant is suffering is chronic
and the distance between the place of posting and his present residence is
also more than 30 Kms. which is difficult to commute, he may be allowed to
make a representation on health grounds before the competent authority of
the Education Department.
Mr. Mangal Debbarma, learned Addl. Government Advocate
appearing for the respondents-State, submits that since the cause of action
has become infructuous, nothing survives to be decided in this appeal.
Be that as it may, we are of the view that though no cause of
action survives in the present appeal, the appellant may have liberty to make
a fresh representation before the competent authority on medical grounds for
reconsideration.
Let it be made clear that we have made no comments on the
merits of the case.
Accordingly, the instant appeal is disposed of.
Pending application(s), if any, also stands disposed of.
