Director Of School Education Madras And ... vs O. Karuppa Thevan on 31 January, 1994
In the facts and circumstances, this Court cannot
persuade itself to accept that either Ext.P5 or Ext.P8 is
W.P.(C) No. 33342/014 : 20 :
legally sustainable, containing reasons indicating any
administrative exigencies not brooking any delay even up to
March, 2015, thus transcending the ratio of Karuppa
Thevan (supra). This Court, therefore, sets aside both
Exts.P5 and P8, thereby permitting the petitioner to
continue in the present place of posting until the end of the
academic year. It is, however, made clear that, at the end of
the present academic years, the respondent University is at
liberty to exercise its administrative powers concerning the
transfer of the petitioner to whichever place it deems fit.
