RAM KISHORE Vs. STATE

JUDGEMENT

(1.) PETITIONER preferred this writ petition challenging the order of transfer Annex-3 dated 30/6/1979 from Municipal Board, Gangashahar to Municipal Board, Khertal. He has challenged the validity of the Rules but his case is squarely covered by the decision of this court in Mohan Lal Jain v/s. State of Rajasthan (1 ). In this case the validity of the ss. 304, 297 (1) and 38 of the Rajasthan Municipal Sub-ordinate and Ministrial Services Rules. 1963 has been upheld. Therefore, this case is squarely covered by the aforesaid judgment.

(2.) MR. Singhvi appearing for the petitioner submits that the transfer order does not fulfil the conditions laid down in Rule 38 of the aforesaid Rules. I have gone through the rule 38 which only enables the Director, Local Bodies to transfer the incumbent from one Municipality to another when it is considered necessary in the efficiency of the services. It is not the requirement of the rule that it should find mention in the transfer order. This is only a guiding factor to the Director whom the power has been conferred under sub Rule (2) of the Rule 38 to transfer the incumbent from one Municipality to another in efficiency of administration.
