Saraf and Manjive Shukla, JJ., held that the transfer and posting of government servant lies in exclusive administrative domain of the State Government and Courts cannot interfere with government servant transfers unless the orders are vitiated due to malice or are in violation of any statutory provision.<\/p>\n<h3>Background<\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">In February 1997, Respondent 6 was initially appointed as Village Development Officer in Unnao and in July 2021, he was promoted on the post of Assistant Development Officer (Panchayat). Thereafter, he was transferred to the development block &#8211; Asoha. Then, in May 2022, he was transferred to the development block &#8211; Safipur.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The petitioner alleged that Respondent 6 had been instrumental in embezzlement of government funds under different development schemes and time and again, different persons submitted complaints in respect of his working. He was alleged to have been taking advantage of his long posting and experience in development block &#8211; Safipur and being crucial in siphoning government funds which were meant for the development work of the villages.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">In May 2025, the Uttar Pradesh Government issued a Government Order whereby transfer policy for the transfers of government servants for the year 2025-26 was enforced. It stated that if a government servant had completed more than seven years of service in one district, he would have to be transferred to another district. The petitioner contended that despite repeated representations made by various persons, State-respondents did not transfer him out of the district.<\/p>\n<h3>Analysis and Decision<\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court stated that &#8220;<span style=\"font-style: italic;\">It may be true that the petitioner and other persons have filed certain complaints against working of Respondent No. 6 and respondent-authorities may consider those complaints and may take decision for transfer of Respondent No. 6 from one place to another but<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\"> petitioner, who is not at all personally aggrieved by non-transfer of Respondent No. 6, cannot be allowed to invoke writ jurisdiction of this Court for transfer of Respondent No. 6 out of the district.<\/span><\/span>&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court viewed that the provisions of the transfer policy issued by the State Government could not be enforced through court of law as it was in the form of guiding factors for the officers concerned to carry out annual transfers of the government servants.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court thus, stated that by now, it has become well settled law that <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">the transfer and posting of government servant lies in exclusive administrative domain of the State Government<\/span> and it is for the State Government to take into account various factors keeping in mind the public interest and administrative exigencies and thereafter, to transfer the government servants but <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">the Courts cannot either issue direction to the State Government to transfer a particular government servant to a particular place nor it can interfere in the orders of transfer of the government servants unless it is shown that the orders are vitiated due to malice or the orders are in violation of any statutory provision<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Hence, the Court dismissed the present petition.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">[<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #632423;\">Ful Chandra v.
