S/L 31 13.05.2024 Court. No.13 Sourav/ Suvayan WPA 13049 of 2024 Aritra Kumar Das Vs.

Paschim Banga Gramin Bank & Ors.

Ms. Abira Bhattacharjee ... for the petitioner.

Mr. Baidurya Ghosal Ms. Aatreyee Dutta Mr. Saikat Mukherjee ...for the respondent nos. 2 to 4.

The petitioner is aggrieved by the order of transfer to the Burdwan District on promotion. He submits that he suffered an injury and has requested for transfer to Howrah district near his home town.

He had gone on an unauthorized leave and also tendered his resignation on the plea that he was not able to work.

The said resignation was, however, withdrawn and the petitioner is still service.

This Court does not find any substantial reason for the petitioner's transfer to Howrah. The petitioner is allowed HRA and can comfortably stay as close as possible to the branch in question at Burdwan. The petitioner has also been offered the choice of branch to join at Burdwan. Transfer is an incidence of service and an employee of the respondent bank may be posted anywhere in the State for administrative exigencies.

Hence, no relief can be granted to the petitioner. The prayers b, c and d are completely ridiculous and cannot be entertained by this Court.

WPA 13049 of 2024 is dismissed.

Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be given to the parties on completion of usual formalities.
