(2.) Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that in the impugned transfer order the place of transfer is not mentioned where the petitioner has been transferred. Learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that the son of the petitioner is studying in Class-11 in Bharat Ram Globel School, Greater Noida and if he is transferred in the mid term, the education of the petitioner's son will disturb and he will not get admission anywhere in the mid term. In the next year the son of the petitioner is appearing in Class-12 and as per the Rules of Central Board of Secondary Education, Class-11 and 12 has to be appeared from the same School. Learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that in view of the Hon'ble Apex Court judgment in the case of Director of School Education Madras and Others Vs. O. Karuppa Thevan, reported in 1994 SCC, Supl. (2) 666, no mid term transfer can be done except if the exigencies of the service are not urgent.
(3.) It is contended by learned counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner has already filed a detailed representation dated 06.02.2020 against the transfer order, which is still pending before the respondent no.6 and no final order has been passed. Learned Standing Counsel submits that the transfer order is rightly passed and this Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India have limited powers to interfere in the transfer order.;
