HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT ALLAHABAD WRIT - A No. - 12861 of 2025 Court No. - 4 HON'BLE AJIT KUMAR, J.
1. Heard learned counsel for petitioner, Shri Ashish Kumar Singh, learned counsel for respondent no.2 and learned Standing Counsel.
2. By means of this petition filed under Article 226 of the Constitution petitioner has assailed the order of transfer on the ground that it is stigmatic in nature.
3. It is contended that the petitioner has been transferred eleven times previously in a year and hence it is quite punitive in nature and for sheer harassment meted out to the petitioner.
4. Per contra it is argued by learned counsel for respondent No.2 that the petitioner has been responsible for misconduct as she has been transferred to another office in the same district and she has locked the almirah and has taken away the key.
5. Be that as it may, since the petitioner's grievance is against the transfer order for it being not only stigmatic in nature but also as a mode of harassment for transferring her eleven times within a year, I consider it appropriate for the petitioner to make representation to the District Basic Education Officer concerned within a period of one week from today and if she does so, the District Basic Education Officer concerned is directed to dispose of the same within a further period of two weeks by means of a reasoned and speaking order. Versus Counsel for Petitioner(s) : Grijesh Tiwari Counsel for Respondent(s) : C.S.C. Archana Singh .....Petitioner(s) State Of U.P. And 2 Others .....Respondent(s)
