Industrial Area Development Act, 1976.3. NOIDA, initially on its inception did not have its own permanent staff and hence, borrowed peoples on its staff on deputation from other source, e.g..

Kamal Kumar Mehta Vs. State of U.P. and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Oct-01-2003

Reported in: 2004(1)AWC772

ORDERM. Katju and Umeshwar Pandey, JJ.1. Heard learned counsel for the parties.2. This special appeal has been filed against the impugned Judgment of the learned single Judge. The appellant has filed this appeal on the ground that he and his wife are living in Ballia and his wife is also in service. The learned single Judge has noted that the petitioner was posted in Ballia for 30 years. Learned counsel for the appellant states that the petitioner is in Ballia only from 1992. Even if that is so, he is in Ballia for 11 years. Learned counsel has relied on a G.O. which directs that ordinarily husband and wife, if both in service, should be posted in the same place. It is well settled that violation of a G.O. is no ground for interference with a transfer order. The petitioner must show violation of a statutory rule or mala fides. Moreover, the G.O. only states that ordinarily husband and wife, if both in service, should be posted together. Thus, this is not meant to be a hard and fast rul...

Nand Kishore and anr. Vs. State of U.P. and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Oct-01-2003

Reported in: 2004(1)AWC773

ORDERM. Katju, J.1. Heard learned counsel for the parties.2. This special appeal has been filed against the impugned Judgment of the learned single Judge dated 29.8.2003.3. The petitioners challenged a transfer order before the learned single Judge but their petition was dismissed, hence this appeal.4. We have carefully perused the judgment of the learned single Judge.We fully agree with the view he has taken. We are of the opinion that the Chief Engineer has jurisdiction to make transfer within his own area of authority. Moreover, transfer is an exigency of service. Writ jurisdiction is discretionary jurisdiction and even if there is a technical error of law, this Court is not bound to interfere. There are allegations that the petitioners are involved with 'Mafia' in doing land grabbing. This was a sufficient ground for transfer. In Ramniklal N. Bhutta v. State of Maharashtra, (1997) 1 SCC 134 (vide para 11), the Supreme Court observed :'The power under Article 226 is discretionary. I...
