W.P.(C) NO. 13252 OF 2010 (F)
=====================
Dated this the 25th day of May, 2010
J U D G M E N T
Petitioner is a Staff Nurse of the Health Services Department
under the DHS. On abolition of Dual Control System, when options
were invited, petitioner did not opt to come over to Medical
Education Department. She apprehends that inspite of the fact
that she did not opt for DME, she is likely to be transferred
retaining his juniors under the DHS. Notification providing for
options itself provide that if the employees opted are more than
the required number, seniors among the optees will be
transferred and that if the number opted is less than the required
strength, the juniors will be transferred compulsorily. Therefore,
as at present, I have no reason to think that the petitioner being
the senior will be transferred retaining her juniors in violation of
the provisions of the notification providing for options and
transfers.
Therefore, the writ petition is premature and is purely
apprehensive and is closed without prejudice to the right of the
WPC No. 13252/10
:2 :
petitioner to approach this Court, if and when any adverse order
is passed.
