A.Mohammed Abdul Khader vs State Of Kerala on 28 July, 2008<\/div>\n
       \n\n  \n\n  \n\n \n \n  IN THE HIGH COURT OF KERALA AT ERNAKULAM\n\nOP.No. 19655 of 2000(M)\n\n\n\n1. A.MOHAMMED ABDUL KHADER\n                      ...

Justice P.N.RAVINDRAN\n\n Dated :28\/07\/2008\n\n O R D E R\n                          P.N.RAVINDRAN, J.\n                    --------------------------\n                      O.P. No. 19655 OF 2000-M\n                    --------------------------\n                    Dated this the 28th July, 2008.\n\n                              JUDGMENT\n<\/pre>\n
     The petitioner was enlisted in the District Armed Reserve, on<\/p>\n
1.6.1979.     He completed his training on 2.3.1980 and was<\/p>\n
appointed as a Police Constable in the Trivandrum constabulary.<\/p>\n
After the Wayanad district was formed, the State Government issued<\/p>\n
Ext.P1 order dated 16.2.1982, in order to enable the establishment<\/p>\n
of a constabulary for Wayanad district. A separate constabulary for<\/p>\n
both the Armed Reserve and         Local Police was constituted with<\/p>\n
effect from 1.3.1982. The principles to be adopted for filling up the<\/p>\n
vacancies in the constabulary were also prescribed in Ext.P1.    The<\/p>\n
principles for filling up the vacancies in Wayanad District Armed<\/p>\n
Reserve as set out in Ext.P2 are as follows:-\n<\/p>\n
Armed Reserve:-\n<\/p>\n
           “i) All N.C.O’s and P.C’s belonging to the undivided
\n     Kozhikode District AR and Cannanore District AR who
\n     opt. to join Wayanad District AR will be transferred on a
\n     permanent basis to Wayanad District AR without loss of
\n     seniority.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
           ii)  The remaining vacancies, if any, will be filled<\/p>\n
O.P.No: 19655\/00                    2<\/span><\/p>\n
     up by transfer of willing N.C.Os\/PCs from other
\n     Districts, without loss of Seniority.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
            Iii) If there are vacancies remaining unfilled after
\n     following the methods (i) and (ii) above such vacancies
\n     will be filled up by transfer of eligible and willing PCs
\n     from Armed Police Battalions accordingly to Rules on the
\n     subject.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
            iv) Further vacancies, if any, of PCs will be filled up
\n     by District recruitment from the open market from time
\n     to time.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\n
     2.    The petitioner who was in the District Armed Reserve,<\/p>\n
Trivandrum falls in category No:2.         He applied for transfer to<\/p>\n
Wayanad District Armed Reserve on a permanent basis without loss<\/p>\n
of seniority. The said request was granted and he was transferred<\/p>\n
to Wayanad district with effect from 1.3.1982 without loss of<\/p>\n
seniority. Thereafter, based on his seniority, he was transferred to<\/p>\n
the General Executive Branch of Wayanad district on 1.10.1982.<\/p>\n
Later, the petitioner applied for inter-district transfer to the General<\/p>\n
Executive Branch of Trivandrum district. The petitioner’s request<\/p>\n
was accepted and he was transferred to the Trivandrum City Local<\/p>\n
Police on 15.12.1988. At the time of his request for transfer to the<\/p>\n
General Executive Branch at Trivandrum he had submitted a written<\/p>\n
consent to the effect that he is willing for transfer to Trivandrum<\/p>\n
O.P.No: 19655\/00                  3<\/span><\/p>\n
District Local Police and join there as the junior most Police<\/p>\n
Constable. Years later, when his earlier service was not reckoned<\/p>\n
for promotion to the post of Head Constable, he submitted a<\/p>\n
representation dated 2.11.1988 to the State Government. He also<\/p>\n
filed O.P.No: 2514 of 1998 in this Court.      By Ext.P2 judgment<\/p>\n
delivered on 10.12.1998 this Court disposed of the said original<\/p>\n
petition with a direction to the State Government to consider his<\/p>\n
representation and to pass orders thereon. As directed therein the<\/p>\n
petitioner was heard and Ext.P3 order was thereafter passed on<\/p>\n
16.6.1999. It was held that though he had gone over to Wayanad<\/p>\n
district without loss of seniority on the terms set out in Ext.P1,<\/p>\n
when he sought inter-district transfer to Trivandrum District after<\/p>\n
going over to the General Executive Branch of Wayanad District on<\/p>\n
1.101982, by virtue of operation of the first proviso to Rule 27 of<\/p>\n
Part II,  K.S & S.S.R, he lost his seniority on his transfer to the<\/p>\n
General Executive Branch of Trivandrum district. In Ext.P3 the State<\/p>\n
Government further held that the two persons over whom the<\/p>\n
petitioner had claimed seniority, had remained in the Trivandrum<\/p>\n
District Armed Reserve and were transferred to the General<\/p>\n
Executive Branch of Trivandrum District when their turn arose<\/p>\n
O.P.No: 19655\/00                   4<\/span><\/p>\n
without loss of seniority and      therefore, they are senior to the<\/p>\n
petitioner. In this original petition the petitioner has challenged<\/p>\n
Ext.P3 and sought a declaration that he is entitled to get seniority in<\/p>\n
the category of Police Constable in the Trivandrum District with<\/p>\n
effect from 1.6.1979.\n<\/p>\n
      3. I have heard Shri. S.V. Rajan, learned counsel appearing for<\/p>\n
the petitioner and Shri. K. Sandesh Raja, learned Govt. Pleader for<\/p>\n
the respondents. The learned counsel for the petitioner contended<\/p>\n
that the petitioner’s transfer to Wayanad District Armed Reserve, as<\/p>\n
per Ext.P1 was not on a permanent basis and, therefore, he retained<\/p>\n
his lien in the Trivandrum District Armed Reserve. Learned counsel<\/p>\n
for the petitioner attempted to draw a distinction between clauses (i)<\/p>\n
and (ii) of Ext.P1 G.O. cited above. It was argued that while clause<\/p>\n
(i) states that the transfer will be on a permanent basis, all that<\/p>\n
clause (ii) says is that the remaining vacancies will be filled up by<\/p>\n
transfer of willing N.C.Os\/PCs from other districts, without loss of<\/p>\n
seniority. Per contra, the learned Govt. Pleader appearing for the<\/p>\n
respondents contended that Ext.P1 was issued with a view to<\/p>\n
establish a constabulary for both the Armed Reserve and the Local<\/p>\n
Police in Wayanad district and that the petitioner was transferred to<\/p>\n
O.P.No: 19655\/00                   5<\/span><\/p>\n
Wayanad District Armed Reserve on a permanent            basis.   The<\/p>\n
learned Govt. Pleader also submitted that the petitioner who was<\/p>\n
transferred to District Armed Reserve, Wayanad was thereafter<\/p>\n
transferred to the General Executive Branch of Wayanad District and<\/p>\n
he could have been given such transfer to the General Executive<\/p>\n
Branch only if he had been transferred to Wayanad District Armed<\/p>\n
Reserve on a permanent basis. The learned Govt. Pleader further<\/p>\n
contended that the petitioner’s transfer to Trivandrum district in the<\/p>\n
year 1988 was one made on his request and that he was transferred<\/p>\n
to Trivandrum district on the basis of the willingness expressed by<\/p>\n
him that he will join as the juniormost Police Constable.<\/p>\n
      4. I have considered the submissions made at the Bar by the<\/p>\n
learned counsel appearing on either side. Ext.P1 discloses that it<\/p>\n
was issued with a view to establish a constabulary for both the<\/p>\n
Armed Reserve and the Local Police with effect from 1.3.1982. The<\/p>\n
petitioner availed the opportunity to come over to Wayanad District<\/p>\n
Arned Reserve, on the terms set out in Ext.P1 without loss of<\/p>\n
seniority. He carried his seniority from Trivandrum District Armed<\/p>\n
Reserve to Wayanad District Armed Reserve when he opted to go<\/p>\n
over to Wayanad District Armed Reserve. Based on that seniority he<\/p>\n
O.P.No: 19655\/00                  6<\/span><\/p>\n
was transferred to the General Executive Branch of Wayanad District<\/p>\n
on 1.10.1982.      The petitioner was transferred to the Wayanad<\/p>\n
District Armed Reserve with effect from 1.3.1982. Unless he had<\/p>\n
been absorbed on a permanent basis in Wayanad District Armed<\/p>\n
Reserve, he would not have been transferred to the General<\/p>\n
Executive Branch of Wayanad District within seven months after he<\/p>\n
went over to that district.    Therefore, there is no merit in the<\/p>\n
petitioner’s contention that his transfer to Wayanad District Armed<\/p>\n
Reserve pursuant to Ext.P1 was not on a permanent basis.           As<\/p>\n
regards the petitioner’s transfer to Trivandrum District, it is not in<\/p>\n
dispute that it was not one made in the exigencies of service. The<\/p>\n
petitioner was, in fact transferred to Trivandrum District on his<\/p>\n
request and on the terms set out in the first proviso to Rule 27 of<\/p>\n
Part II, K.S & S.S.R., which stipulates that seniority of a person<\/p>\n
transferred from one unit to another within the same department on<\/p>\n
request shall be determined with reference to the date of his joining<\/p>\n
duty in the new unit.      In the light of the said provisions, the<\/p>\n
petitioner, who voluntarily chose to come over to Trivandrum<\/p>\n
District and to join as the junior most Police Constable in the<\/p>\n
Trivandrum District cannot claim that his seniority in Trivandrum<\/p>\n
O.P.No: 19655\/00                  7<\/span><\/p>\n
District should be reckoned with effect from 1.6.1979.<\/p>\n
      For the reasons stated above, I hold that there is no merit in<\/p>\n
this Original Petition. The Original Petition accordingly fails and it is<\/p>\n
dismissed. No costs.\n<\/p>\n
