Neutral Citation No. - 2025:AHC:48204 Court No. - 4 Case :- WRIT - A No. - 4042 of 2025 Petitioner :- Ragini Katiyar Respondent :- State Of U.P. And 3 Others Counsel for Petitioner :- Alok Shukla,Prabhakar Awasthi Counsel for Respondent :- C.S.C. Hon'ble Ajit Kumar,J. Heard Sri Prabhakar Awasthi, learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Standing Counsel. The argument advanced by learned counsel for the petitioner is that petitioner was transferred from Kanpur to Lucknow on her own request vide order dated 29.6.2024, however, on the very next date, same order came to be recalled on 30.6.2024. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that although the order is silent as to the reason for recalling of earlier order passed date 29.6.2024, but perhaps according to him, reason is petitioner's home district shown as Lucknow and Kannauj in the official records. He submits that service book contains home district of petitioner as Kannauj only. It is in such circumstances, therefore, , he pleads that the order dated 30.6.2024 needs to be quashed. Learned Standing Counsel submits that since petitioner has already approached the competent authority by making representation dated 26.10.2024 with repeated reminders thereof, the same can be directed to be considered by the competent authority, namely, respondent no. 4 in accordance with law. In view of above, this petition stands disposed of with direction to respondent no. 4 to look into and consider the grievance of the petitioner regarding cancellation of earlier order dated 29.6.2024 his request for transfer her to Lucknow in the light of relevant rules and service records particularly service book of the petitioner which may be containing the home district of petitioner. Appropriate decision shall be taken by the respondent concerned within a maximum period of one month from the date of presentation of certified copy of this order.
