Through, instant petition challenge came to be laid to
order dated 12.07.2024, whereby petitioner was transferred to a school, where no NCC troops were functioning. Since petitioner apart from his being Lecturer in Physics, was also a trained Associate NCC Officer(ANO), he could not have been transferred to school not having NCC troops. Being aggrieved on account of refusal to grant interim relief by learned Single Judge, petitioner filed LPA, as detailed hereinabove. Division Bench of this Court having taken note of the fact that petitioner apart from his being Lecturer in Physics is also trained NCC officer, quashed the impugned transfer order dated
12.07.2024. While passing the judgment dated 24th October, 2024, Division Bench of this Court also allowed the writ petition.
3.
In view of the above, nothing remains to be adjudicated in the present petition and accordingly present petition is disposed of as having rendered infructuous alongwith pending applications, if any.
