2024:KER:77432 28 O.P.(CAT) Nos.140, 141, 142, 143, 144, 146, 147, 149 and 150 of 2024

2. The petitioners are working as Nursing Officers at E.S.I. Corporation Hospital, Udyogamandal. Annexure A1 is a copy of the office order No.222 of 2024 dated 23.07.2024 issued by the 2nd respondent-Regional Director, ESI Corporation, Regional Office, Thrissur. It is the order of general transfer in the year 2024. In terms of that order, 76 Nursing Officers working at various ESI Hospitals were transferred. Out of them, 35 persons have been transferred out from ESIC Hospital, Udyogamandal. Sl.Nos.2, 5 and 42 to 76 in Annexure A1 are the nursing officers transferred from ESIC Hospital, Udyogamandal. Except Sl.Nos.2 and 5, other 33 Nursing Officers are the persons approached the Administrative Tribunal by filing the aforesaid original applications. They seek to set aside Annexure A1 order to the extent it relates to the said applicants. They further seek to direct the 1 st respondent to consider representations submitted by the respective applicants requesting to reconsider their transfer. Interim relief to stay implementation of Annexure A1 transfer order to the extent it relates to the petitioners was also sought.

2024:KER:77432 29 O.P.(CAT) Nos.140, 141, 142, 143, 144, 146, 147, 149 and 150 of 2024

3. The Tribunal granted interim orders staying implementation of Annexure A1 to the extent it relates to the petitioners. The respondents entered appearance and filed preliminary objections. The petitioners have filed rejoinder. After hearing both sides, the Tribunal as per the impugned order dated 19.08.2024 sustained the preliminary objection and vacated the interim order. The said common order is under challenge in these original petitions filed under Article 227 of the Constitution of India.

4. Heard the learned Senior Counsel Sri.Elvin Peter, Advocate Sri.P.Rmakrishnan and Sri.Thampan Thomas for the respective petitioners, Sri.Adarsh Kumar, the learned Standing Counsel for the ESI Corporation and the learned counsel for the additional respondents.

5. Annexure A1 order was issued as part of general transfer during the year 2024. It is an order of intra region transfers. The learned Senior Counsel and also the other counsel would submit on behalf of the petitioners that implementation of Annexure A1 has been challenged not because the petitioners are 2024:KER:77432 30 O.P.(CAT) Nos.140, 141, 142, 143, 144, 146, 147, 149 and 150 of 2024 averse to transfers, but because the transfers were ordered much after commencement of the academic year, and has been in total violation of the transfer policy contained in Annexure A2. As a matter fact, none of the petitioners submitted an option as allowed in Clause-5.4 of Annexure A2 for the reason that they were not averse to transfers. Clause-9 in Annexure A2 enunciates that employees, who completed three years of service, would ordinarily be transferred. The petitioners, however, expected that the process of transfer would be completed as per Annexure-II to Annexure A2, which contains a time schedule and if that was adhered to, the petitioners would not have any grievance. In terms of the time schedule, orders of transfer and postings should have to be issued on 16.03.2024. Whereas, Annexure A1 transfer order was issued only on 23.07.2024. On account of the said delay, the petitioners were put to much hardships. The main grievance the petitioners set forth is that they could not get admission for their children at the new place and if school is changed during the middle of academic year, that would adversely affect their studies.

2024:KER:77432 31 O.P.(CAT) Nos.140, 141, 142, 143, 144, 146, 147, 149 and 150 of 2024

6. The learned counsel for the petitioners in O.P.(CAT) Nos.149 and 150 of 2024 further would submit that the said petitioners would be put to career disadvantage, since their transfer from ESIC Hospital, Udyogamandal to ESIC Hospitals, Asramam and Ezhukone will preclude them from getting promotion for, their lein for promotion is in ESIC, Udyogamandal. In that view of the matter, their transfers are said to be vitiated by malafides. Accordingly, it is contended that their transfers are illegal.

7. The learned counsel for ESIC would submit that the Tribunal could not interfere with Annexure A1 office order since the transfers and postings ordered thereby are part of general transfers. The Tribunal is not expected to interfere with such transfers, even if there are refraction from the guidelines issued in relation to the transfers. As long as the transferees are not able to plead and substantiate that the transfers are the outcome of malafide exercise of powers or is violative of statutory provision prohibiting such transfers, there could be no interfere to the order of transfers. It is 2024:KER:77432 32 O.P.(CAT) Nos.140, 141, 142, 143, 144, 146, 147, 149 and 150 of 2024 submitted that the petitioners did not plead even any malafides or statutory violation and therefore the impugned order can have no interference. The learned counsel would submit that this Court in the exercise of the powers under Article 227 of the Constitution of India is not expected to consider the correctness or legality of the impugned order, which is only an interim one. The learned counsel places reliance in support of his contentions on Shilpi Bose v. State of Bihar [1991 Supp.(2) SCC 659], National Hydroelectric Power Corporation Ltd. v. Shri Bhagwan [(2001) 9 SCC 574] and E.P.Royappa v. State of Tamil Nadu [(1974) 4 SCC 3]. The principle in E.P.Royappa [(1974) 4 SCC 3] was relied on by the High Court of Delhi in the judgment dated 19.10.2022 in W.P.(C) No.6228 of 2014 and connected cases (Alok Kumar Verma v. Union of India), which also is relied on by the learned counsel for ESIC to fortify his stand.

8. Additional respondents No.6 and 7 in O.P.(CAT) No.146 of 2024, additional respondents No.5 and 6 in O.P. 2024:KER:77432 33 O.P.(CAT) Nos.140, 141, 142, 143, 144, 146, 147, 149 and 150 of 2024 (CAT) No.143 of 2024 and additional respondents No.10 and 11 in O.P.(CAT) No.150 of 2024 would support the aforesaid submissions and defend the impugned order. The additional respondents are persons obtained transfers and wanted to get the transfers effected.

9. Annexure A2 issued on 07.12.2022 by the ESIC contains intra region transfer policy. Going by the provisions in it, the petitioners may not be able to claim any immunity from transfer. But their contention that while ordering transfers in terms of Annexure A1, the time schedule prescribed in Annexure-II to Annexure A2 was not followed. The time schedule in Annexure-II are the following:

  Date by which                               Exercise
action to be taken

1st December         Preparatory work of Annual General Transfers. List of

15th to 31st Calling of option(s) by 31st December through online December portal in respect of Staff (a) having completed or completing minimum/ maximum tenure as prescribed at a station as on 31st March of transfer year; and (b) seeking Compassionate Ground Transfers requiring deviation from the norms/criteria and tenure prescribed under this policy under clause 5.2(iii) of transfer policy.

2024:KER:77432 34 O.P.(CAT) Nos.140, 141, 142, 143, 144, 146, 147, 149 and 150 of 2024 10th February Transfer Committee to recommend Annual General Transfer/Request Transfers/& Compassionate Ground Transfers and making available the options received for transfer/posting online on the portal/website. 25th February Orders for Annual General Transfer/Request transfer/& Compassionate Ground Transfers to be issued. 2nd March-5th Online grievance representation by those aggrieved by March the Annual General Transfer order(s) 10th March Comments of Transfer Grievance Redressal Committee to be submitted before Competent Authority and their disposal 15th March Transfer Committee to recommend transfers of Group 'B' Nursing & Group 'B' and 'C' Para medical staff transferred from other regions. 16th March Orders for posting of Group 'B' Nursing & Group 'B' and 'C' Para medical staff transferred from other regions to be issued.

10. The law laid down by the Apex Court in Shilpi Bose [1991 Supp.(2) SCC 659], National Hydroelectric Power Corporation Ltd. [(2001) 9 SCC 574] and E.P.Royappa [(1974) 4 SCC 3] is trite that an order of transfer is not liable to be interfered with unless it is an outcome of malafide exercise of power or issued in violation of statutory provisions prohibiting such transfer. In 2024:KER:77432 35 O.P.(CAT) Nos.140, 141, 142, 143, 144, 146, 147, 149 and 150 of 2024 E.P.Royappa [(1974) 4 SCC 3], the Apex Court further held that the petitioner challenging the transfer should establish hostility and malus animus on the part of the authority. It was also explained the nature of burden vested on the petitioners to establish such an allegation. Going by the said principles, the petitioners are bound to prove prima facie that Annexure A1 is frowned by malafides or is bad for violation of statutory provision.

11. The learned Senior Counsel drew our attention to the observations of a Division Bench of this Court in Kala C.Mohan (Dr.) v. ESI Corporation [2024 (1) KHC 335]. It was observed therein that when working women are transferred to new destinations, they often encounter challenges like finding suitable childcare arrangements and maintaining a work-life balance in an unfamiliar environment. It is difficult to shift a child to another school during the midst of the academic year, especially in the 11th Standard.

12. The transfers and postings as per Annexure A1 were expected to be ordered on or before 16.03.2024 as 2024:KER:77432 36 O.P.(CAT) Nos.140, 141, 142, 143, 144, 146, 147, 149 and 150 of 2024 prescribed in Annexure-II to Annexure A2. If done so, the petitioners could not raise an objection on the ground that the studies of their children would be adversely affected. They would have obtained enough time to ventilate their grievance by submitting grievance representation as provided in Clause-14 in Annexure A2. In Annexure-II, the date stipulated for online grievances is 25.03.2024. Therefore, the transferee employees could have availed the opportunity to ventilate their grievance prior to the commencement of the academic year itself.

13. Annexure R1(b) is the recommendations of the transfer committee for intra region transfers, based on which Annexure A1 order was issued. It is seen from it that the transfer committee held its meetings on 12.07.2024 and 18.07.2024 in order to finalise the intra region transfers. Following that Annexure A1 was issued on 23.07.2024. The petitioners could submit their representations only thereafter. Annexure A4 is a copy of the grievance representation submitted by the petitioner in O.P.No.140 of 2024 before the 2024:KER:77432 37 O.P.(CAT) Nos.140, 141, 142, 143, 144, 146, 147, 149 and 150 of 2024 Director General, ESIC. Similar representations were submitted by other petitioners. It appears that those representations were not considered yet.

14. The observations by this Court in Kala C.Mohan [2024 (1) KHC 335] may not be a ground to a hold that the transfers vide Annexure A1 are vitiated by malafides or violative of any statutory provision. But when Annexure A1 was issued in total disregard of the time schedule prescribed in Annexure-II to Annexure A2 transfer policy, the aforementioned observations assumes much relevance. It is especially so when the grievance representation submitted by the petitioners are pending consideration. The learned counsel for the respondents pointed out that on account of some glitches in the online submission of applications, the said delay occurred. It is also submitted that as allowed by the Tribunal only the transfers were effected at a belated stage, and therefore, the petitioners cannot be heard to contend that there is any kind of malafides in issuing Annexure A1.

2024:KER:77432 38 O.P.(CAT) Nos.140, 141, 142, 143, 144, 146, 147, 149 and 150 of 2024

15. As stated, the allegations of the petitioners that Annexure A1 order was issued in violation of the time schedule in Annexure-II to Annexure A2 may not ordinarily be a reason to challenge it. But when the time schedule is violated and order of transfer has the effect of causing total prejudice to the interest of not only the petitioners, but also the members of their families, the said questions requires serious consideration. In that circumstance, the Tribunal ought to have found that there existed a prima facie case in favour of the petitioners. The order vacating the interim order is therefore incorrect. It is more so when the representation submitted by the petitioners are not yet disposed of.

16. The contentions set forth by the petitioners in O.P. (CAT) Nos.149 and 150 of 2024 touching the malafides on account of the adverse impact to their career on account of the transfers is a question germane in the final analysis of the original applications. The plea of the petitioners that they therefore have the right to be retained at Udyogamandal also is a relevant consideration.

2024:KER:77432 39 O.P.(CAT) Nos.140, 141, 142, 143, 144, 146, 147, 149 and 150 of 2024

17. In view of the above, we find substance in the contentions of the petitioners against Annexure A1 order. Hence, we set aside the impugned order. The Tribunal listed the original applications by directing the respondents to file their reply. It implies that once pleadings are complete, the original applications could be heard and disposed of.

18. In the circumstances, the original petitions are allowed. The impugned order is set aside. The interim orders of stay granted by the Tribunal against implementation of Annexure A1 to the extent it relates to the petitioners in these original petitions are restored.
