PRITAM SINGH Appellant
V/S
State of Raj. And Ors. Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) TO challenge the judgment dated 2.5.2008 passed by the Rajasthan Civil Services Appellate Tribunal, Jaipur this petition for writ is preferred. In brief facts of the case are that the Superintendent of Police, Government Railway Police (North), Jodhpur by an order dated 6.4.2008 transferred the petitioner, a Constable from GRP Jodhpur to GRP, Ajmer. The transfer aforesaid was made on basis of certain complaints. By alleging malafides and extraneous considerations challenge was given to the order aforesaid. Learned Tribunal dismissed the appeal in limine by holding that the transfer impugned was effected in administrative exigency without having any extraneous considerations or malafides. It is contended by learned Counsel for the petitioner that the Tribunal while rejecting the appeal preferred by the petitioner failed to appreciate that transfer of the petitioner was founded on a compliant and such a transfer is certainly stigmatic.

(2.) A reply to the writ petition has been filed on behalf of the Heard.

(3.) THE petition for writ is dismissed accordingly.
