‘There is no mala fide intention’
The Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court on Tuesday dismissed the plea of a government servant and vacated the interim stay granted against her transfer after it found there was no mala fide intention behind the transfer.
Justice S. Vaidyanathan observed that there was no mala fide intention behind the transfer of the petitioner and it was made on the request of the petitioner herself.
The court was hearing the case of S. Umarani, who had filed the petition after she was transferred to Tiruchi from Karur on administrative grounds.
The Selection Grade Executive Officer in 2017 claimed that she was being transferred to various places without reason.
She said she was transferred from Karur to Tiruchi after only one year and added that the transfer was in violation of the government’s transfer policy and arbitrary in nature.
The State, in its response, said the transfer was purely on administrative grounds and as transfer was an integral part of the service, she could not refuse to accept it.
The court dismissed the plea while observing that as there was no hidden agenda behind the transfer, the order need not be interfered upon.
