(Oral) In the present petition, the grievance of the petitioner is that the petitioner was appointed as Math Master/ TGT Mathematics at Government Sr. Sec. School, Prahlad Pur, District Kurukshetra, whereas the petitioner is also having the additional charge of Associate NCC Officer. Learned counsel submits that as per the transfer policy, an employee who is also having the charge of Assistant Associate Officer should be transferred only to a place where the NCC Unit exist whereas by the impugned order dated 28.08.

2022, the petitioner has been transferred to Government High School, Bapda Bapdi, District Kurukshetra where no post of Associate NCC Officer exist, hence, the transfer of the petitioner is bad. Learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that in somewhat similar circumstances, an employee, namely, Ravinder Singh has been granted exemption from the participation in transfer. Learned counsel submits that keeping in view the said fact including the fact that the workload of the post of Math Master/ TGT Mathematics exists at the present place of posting, the respondents are liable to review the RENU 2022.09.
