On the other hand, the respondents refused to agree with the petitioner\u2019s version of facts and proved that the petitioner had remained at the previously posted place for more than 2 years and the impugned order was made to cope up for an administrative exigency which could not be interfered with by the Court.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Bench of Vandana Karsekar, J. on hearing both the parties observed that as held in the case of <em>R.

It ruled that in the present case, there was no as such violation of statutory rules and also, no mala fide has been proved by the petitioner on respondent\u2019s part. Therefore, there is no reason to interfere with the writ petition. [D. N. Raj v.
