ALOK SHARMA Digitally signed by ALOK SHARMA Date: 2025.09.17 18:46:30 +0530 2 2. Learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that the petitioner was transferred vide order dated 10.07.2025 (Annexure P/2) from Tahsil – Karpawand to Tahsil- Bakawand and in pursuance thereof he joined there at Tahsil- Bakawand on 18.07.2025. Thereafter, vide order dated 21.08.2025 (Annexure P/1) he was assigned duties from Patwari Halka No. 9, Kosmi to Patwari Halka No. 5, Chhindgaon, which is the frequent transfer of the petitioner within a month from his joining. By the frequent transfer the petitioner is facing hardship, therefore, impugned order may be quashed. 3. On the other hand, learned counsel for the Respondent/State opposes and have submitted that vide order dated 21.08.2025 only the Patwari Halka number has been changed. On administrative exigency he was assigned duties from Patwari Halka No. 9, Kosmi to Patwari Halka No. 5, Chhindgaon, therefore, there is no illegality or infirmity in the impugned order. 4. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the material annexed with the petition. 5. True, it is that the petitioner has been transferred from Tahsil Karpawand to Tahsil Bakawand vide order dated 10.07.2025 and he joined there at Bakawand Tahsil on 18.07.2025. However, it transpires from the order dated 21.08.2025, he was assigned duties from Patwari Halka No. 9 to Patwari Halka No. 5, Chhindgaon on the administrative exigency and smooth functioning of the work of Patwari. Only the charge of Patwari Halka number changed, it cannot be considered to be a frequent transfer from one place to another and thereby, I do not 3 find any perversity or illegality in assigning the duties of Patwari Halka No. 5, Chhindgaon to the petitioner by the order dated 21.08.2025 issued by the Respondent No. 3. 6. Accordingly, the there is no merits in the petition and the same is hereby dismissed. Sd/- (Ravindra Kumar Agrawal) Judge Alok
