HC stays official’s transfer for daughter’s exam


HC stays official’s transfer for daughter’s exam

Bhopal:  25.10.2021

Madhya Pradesh high court has stayed the transfer of a food safety officer on the ground that her daughter has to appear in her Class X board exam. The court allowed her to join her new posting after the session ended.

The petitioner, Sandhya Marco, was transferred from Balaghat to Dindori, over 200km apart, on August 23, 2021. She moved HC, pleading that her transfer be stayed as her daughter’s studies would be affected ahead of her board exams. She said she had applied to the higher authorities of her department for a stay on her transfer, but no decision had been taken yet. She also pointed out that no one has been posted in her place at Balaghat, and pleaded to be allowed to continue in the post till her daughter’s exams. Justice Vishal Mishra granted her prayer and asked Marco to give an undertaking that she would join her new posting after the end of this academic session. TNN
