UKHC010121982026 2026:UHC:5837 1 HIGH COURT OF UTTARAKHAND AT NAINITAL Writ Petition Service Single No. 1843 of 2026 15 July, 2026 Sanjeet Kumar --Petitioner Versus State Of Uttarakhand & others --Respondents ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Presence:- Mr. Nagesh Aggarwal, learned counsel for the petitioner. Mr. Anil Dabral, learned Additional C.S.C. along with Mr. Prem Prakash Bhatt, learned Brief Holder for the State. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Hon’ble Pankaj Purohit, J. Petitioner has challenged the transfer order dated 30.06.2026 (Annexure-1 to the writ petition) passed by respondent no. 2, Director (Training), Directorate of Training and Employment, Uttarakhand, whereby the petitioner has been transferred from Government Industrial Training Institute, Sahaspur (Boksa), to Government Industrial Training Institute, Nandasain. 2. Learned counsel for the petitioner has filed the present writ petition on the premise that, on being invited by the transferring authority, petitioner has given 10 options to which the petitioner can be transferred under the compulsory transfer from an accessible area to a remote area. 3. The grievance of the petitioner is that though the petitioner has been transferred to one of the options given by him, i.e. Nandasain, instead of that, he should UKHC010121982026 2026:UHC:5837 2 have been transferred to some other place of option in the preferential order. 4. Per contra, learned State Counsel submits that petitioner has been posted at Sahaspur (Boksa) since 2016 and, for the last two years, he has been attached to Piran Kaliyar, therefore, he has rightly been transferred under the compulsory transfer from an accessible area to a remote area, and further, he has been transferred to a place which has been given by him as one of the options. 5. Having considered the rival submissions of the parties and, particularly, the fact that petitioner has been transferred to one of the places mentioned in his options, i.e. Nandasain, therefore, no case is made out for interference. 6. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed in limine. 7. Pending application, if any, stands disposed of accordingly.
