Since petitioner does not have any legal or statutory right, which can compel the respondent-authorities to post him in a hospital of his liking, therefore, it is open to the petitioner to give up his resident-ship, if he so wants and if he does not want to serve the State at the present hospital. The State knows better, where the service of the petitioner is required to be used as a Sr. Resident.
