Similarly one S. Ramachandran working in the District Educational Office was transferred to the Block Educational Office, Bogalur, Ramanathapuram district.
The petitioner claimed that Ramachandran and the District Educational Officer had colluded and had indulged in various irregularities. Now that he was transferred to that office, he was also asked to do the same, the petitioner alleged.
Besides, Ramachandran had illegally gained entry into the office and manipulated certain records. Subsequently, the petitioner said, he was issued a transfer order in early February in order to accommodate Ramachandran to achieve certain objectives. He sought a direction to quash the transfer order. The case was adjourned to March 19.
