Sailendra Kumar Sarangi Vs. Syndicate Bank and ors.

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Mar-30-2001

Reported in: (2002)IILLJ348Cal

Prabir Kumar Samanta, J.1. The law relating to the transfer of Government Servant has more or less been crystalised in the meantime by various decisions of the High Courts as well as the Supreme Court. The principle enunciated therefrom is that a transfer order made to satisfy the administrative exigencies cannot be questioned as it is entirely for the employer to decide when and where a public servant is to be placed. The Court will not ordinarily interfere with an order of transfer which is made to satisfy the exigencies of service. The Supreme Court in Jeet Mohinder Singh v. Harminder Singh Jassi, reported in : AIR2000SC256 held in particular that merely because a Government servant happens to be posted twice at a particular place within a short range of time an inference as to his having been brought to a particular station for a particular purpose cannot be drawn. In another case, Union of India and Ors. v. S.L Abbas, reported in : (1993)IILLJ626SC it has been held that the guidel...

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Mar-28-2001

The reason given in the letter was that the date of joining of service of the writ-petitioner was inadvertently considered as April 8, 1960 at the time of the first computation instead of taking the correct date therein, which would be October 19, 1968. 3. The letter was issued some three years after the petitioner had retired from service and had started receiving retiral benefits. 4.
