The order dated 16.45, 2017 did not discuss the consequences af the applicanis promotion to higher grade on his requested for mutual transfer iz. Sefore allowing the Senefit af pramation to the applicant on 16.11.2016, the pending issue of mutual transfer reques! since March, should fave heen approved and implemented. But approval of mutual transfer of the applicant was accorded vide arder dated Js OF 2077 (Annexure CA-2), which incorrectly refers to applicants Grade Pay as Rs 1800 freanng him as Helper ft is sot clear from the said order dated 16.01.2017, if the promotion of the applicant vide order eiettes?

Ernakulam Bench of this Tribunsi hes held aa pnaer:
Ernakulam Bench of tsNis Treiiboans. Mas Meg aS Brder:
Se ion ae pix, o7 os I ered Ba d4. Thus, when the applicant stood promoted to the higher post, he caimot, against his willingness, be shifted to a lower post on miudtual transfer on the basis of his application made by him at the time when he was holding a lower posi.
i$. That as wedertaking to the effect that the person aupiying for mutual transfer would nor withdraw is app! sation cerfainiv holds good so fosg as the apphiecuy remains in that post and not when he stands promoted fo a higher post.
6 an faet, even on unilateral inter divisional transfer or bier railway transfer accepting bottom seniority, where alsa, if takes time for such a iransfer to materialize, before affecting transfer, the willingness or otherwise ix being invariably asked jor the circumstances prevailing at the time when an individual wha applied "for such a transfer may nat be subsisting fo seek the transfer.

iv. The so ealled undertaking to the effect that once applied, the application would not be withdrawn does net shut the doors of such applicant to move application for withdrawal fn the case of Union of India Vs. Wine Commander T Parthaxaratin, (2001) 1 SCC 138, the Apex Court sas held as under:

"Si The rellance placed xpon the so-called policy decision which obligated the respondent ta furnish as certifi cate ta the extent that he was fully aware of the fact iat he eannot later seek for cancellation of the application once made for premature retirement cannot, in our view, be destructive af the right of the respondent, in law, to withdraw his request for premature retirement before it ever became operative and effective and effected fersination of his status and relation with the Separtment, "

ie. Again, 2 canmot be the case of the respondents that such a@ condition is inflexible, jor ie ay earlier case, they had accepted such an application for withdrawal and on the ather inddidual being asked to go back to the parent Railways, the said individual moved the Tribusial but his application was rejected. On his further appeal before the High Cowrt, the uphele thte decision vide judgment dated 30° January 2001 in ~ « ~ G Bz, : if as «3.
