(1.) HEARD learned Counsel for the petitioner as well as counsel for the respondent. The petitioner has challenged before the Central Administrative Tribunal for his transfer order, for his posting from Nagaur to Muradabad vide order dated 17.3.1999. The transfer was sought to be cancelled firstly on the medical ground on account of illness of the petitioner's wife and by alleging that the order is punitive and malafide and has been made in colourable exercise of power in order to accommodate Nahar Singh at Nagaur in place of petitioner. All these grounds did not find favour with the Tribunal and the Original Application was dismissed by the impugned order.

(2.) IT has been urged by the learned Counsel for the petitioner that the transfer order is malafide in as much as his transfer has been made to make room for Nahar Singh and that has turned out to be true because after the transfer of petitioner from Nagaur to Muradabad, Nahar Singh has been transferred at Nagaur.

(3.) APART from that there is no allegation in the O.A. suggesting any personal ill -will or disposal towards the petitioner by any of the officers connected with the exercise of the power. In the absence of any Specific allegation about malafide there is no room to consider the question of transfer being malafide.
