ORAL ORDER
(PER: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE S.G.PANDIT)
Heard learned Senior counsel Sri.Dhananjay V Joshi for learned counsel Sri.Sunil Kumar H for the petitioner and learned Senior counsel Sri.V Lakshminarayana for learned counsel Sri.Shashank S for caveator respondent No.4 and learned AGA for respondent Nos.1 and 2. Perused the entire writ petition papers.
2. The petitioner is before this Court questioning interim order dated 08.07.2026 in Application No.3168/2026 passed by the Karnataka State Administrative Tribunal, Bengaluru (hereinafter for short referred to as 'the Tribunal') by which the petitioner's prayer to stay notification dated 06.07.2026 transferring the petitioner and posting the third respondent in her place. Learned Senior counsel for the petitioner has urged
HC-KAR
several grounds in support of the petitioner's prayer for grant of interim prayer made before the Tribunal. However, the grounds urged are to be considered by the Tribunal at the time of disposal of the application. The Tribunal on consideration of the interim prayer of the petitioner, taking note of the fact that the third respondent has assumed charge and the petitioner is already relieved from the post of Chief Administrative Officer, KIDWAI Memorial Institute of Oncology in its discretion refused to grant interim prayer.
3. We do not find any error or illegality in the discretionary order passed by the Tribunal. However, the Tribunal shall examine the validity of the transfer notification without taking into notice the assumption of charge by respondent No.3, on its merit. The Tribunal shall endeavor to dispose of the application pending before the Tribunal as early as possible taking note of the fact that it is a transfer matter.
HC-KAR
4. With the above, writ petition stand disposed of.
