And 3 Others Counsel for Petitioner :- Ripu Daman Shahi,Ram Kumar Singh Counsel for Respondent :- C.S.C. Hon'ble Abdul Moin,J. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and Sri Pankaj Patel, learned Additional Chief Standing Counsel for the respondents. With the consent of learned counsels appearing for the contesting parties, the writ petition is being finally decided. Although the petitioner, Executive Officer, has raised a challenge to the transfer order dated 28.04.2025, a copy of which is annexure no.1 to the petition, whereby the petitioner has been transferred from district Mau to District Etah, yet learned counsel for the petitioner states that as the wife of the petitioner is working as Assistant Teacher at District Ayodhya as such the respondents may consider the posting of the petitioner either at District Ayodhya or any nearby District to Ayodhya in terms of the transfer policy which provides posting of husband and wife together. It is also contended that various posts are vacant in adjoining Districts to Ayodhya namely at Barabanki and Ambedkar Nagar. Learned counsel for petitioner after arguing at some length prays that in this regard the petitioner may be permitted to submit a comprehensive representation to respondent no.1 i.e. the Principal Secretary, Urban Development, Lucknow and prays that the respondent no.1 be directed to consider the claim of the petitioner in accordance with law and the transfer policy within a specified time. To the said prayer, learned Additional Chief Standing Counsel has no objection. Accordingly, without entering into the merits of the case, the present petition is disposed of leaving it open to the petitioner to submit a comprehensive representation against the impugned transfer order dated 28.04.2025 before respondent no. 1 within a period of one week from today. In case such a representation is made, respondent no.1 shall proceed to decide the same in accordance with law and transfer policy considering the grounds taken by the petitioner in the representation, which would be decided within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of the representation alongwith certified copy of this order.
