Coram: Justice Anu Sivaraman

Case No.: WP(C) NO. 14666 OF 2022

Court Observation: “In view of the specific reasons stated in Exhibit P9 that the transfer was necessitated on administrative grounds, I am of the opinion that this Court would not be justified in interfering in an order of transfer, especially where the petitioner is a member of a uniformed service.
