However, vide impugned order, she was directed to participate in the general counselling 2/6 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P.No.19127 of 2025 without giving her any transfer. Hence, she prayed to interfere with the above impugned order. 3. The learned Government Advocate appearing for the respondents, on instructions from the second respondent, states that the general counselling has been conducted on 22.05.2025 and 23.05.2025 after giving notice to all individuals, whereas the petitioner did not participate in the general counselling. It is the further submission of the learned Government Advocate that two vacancies, which were shown in transfer counselling, were opted by the seniors to the petitioner and the posting order was issued accordingly. In such view of the matter, he prayed to dismiss the present writ petition. 4. I have given my anxious consideration to the submissions made on either side. 5.
