HC frowns upon government servants resisting transfers
CHENNAI , MARCH 20, 2019 01:28 IST
Asks them to exhibit devotion to duty like IAF pilots who carried out Balakot strikes
Frowning upon government servants who resisted transfer, the Madras High Court chose to contrast it with the commitment and bravery of the Indian Air Force personnel, who carried out air strikes on a training camp of terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammad at Balakot in Pakistan on February 26 pursuant to the killing of 40 CRPF personnel in Pulwama.
“The court would like to remind the bravery shown by our Air Force pilots in targeting the enemy terrorist camps inside the territory of Pakistan,” Justice S.M. Subramaniam said and impressed upon the need for all other public servants, irrespective of their nature of work, to follow suit and exhibit similar kind of devotion towards their respective duties. “Undoubtedly every family in this country has got problems in one way or the other. They have to solve those problems and lead a happy and peaceful life. Such personal grievances cannot be a ground to revoke an order of transfer. This court would like to know whether there is any family in the country which has no problems or issues at all,” the judge said. Slamming those who challenge administrative transfers citing personal difficulties, Justice Subramaniam said: “If reasons like welfare of children and aged parents are to be raised, then the employee should not opt for public service. Public service is a noble one... Place or post can never be claimed as a matter of choice.”
