Karnataka High Court:<\/strong> While noting that there can be no claim of violation of a person\u2019s fundamental or\u00a0civil rights just because his wife is not being transferred near his residence, the Single Bench of\u00a0Raghvendra S. Chauhan, J. dismissed petitioner\u2019s writ petition praying for direction to include his wife\u2019s\u00a0name at the top of the Final List of Transfer (a transfer list of Government Employees in the category of\u00a0\u201cHusband and Wife\u201d) for lack of maintainability.<\/p>\n

The Petitioner was a Junior Assistant with Hubballi Electricity Supply Company, while his wife was\u00a0working as a Physical Education Teacher at Government Juniour College, Budikote. He pleaded to the\u00a0Commissioner of Public Instructions that he and his wife should be considered in the category of\u00a0\u201chusband and wife as Government employees\u201d, and his wife should be transferred to a place nearby his\u00a0residence. Later, aggrieved by a final provisional priority list wherein his wife\u2019s name was pushed \u00a0down,\u00a0he filed a representation before the Director of Public Instructions. However, by an Endorsement he was\u00a0informed that the list published was correct. He thereafter filed a writ petition seeking inclusion of his\u00a0wife\u2019s name at top of the provisional list and quashing of the Endorsement.<\/p>\n

The High Court observed that before it can issue any directions it ought to be satisfied about the\u00a0maintainability of the writ petition. Since the petitioner failed to establish that his civil or fundamental\u00a0rights were being violated by the impugned provisional list or by the Endorsement, the Court held that\u00a0the writ petition was not maintainable and accordingly dismissed it. [Shreeshail Mudakappa v. State of\u00a0Karnataka, 2016 SCC OnLine Kar 5058<\/a>, decided on October 20, 2016]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
