JUDGMENT : P.D. AUDIKESAVALU, J. (Prayer:- Writ Appeal filed under Clause 15 of Letters Patent, praying to quash the order dated 11.03.2019 passed in W.P. No. 31627 of 2018.) 1. The Appellant, who was working as Noon Meal Organizer at Panchayat Union Elementary School, Singarapettai, Krishnagiri District made a representation dated 23.01.2018 for transfer to the same post at Government Boys Higher Secondary School, Singarapettai, Krishnagiri District. This Court by order dated 27.08.2018 in W.P. No. 21814 of 2018 without expressing any opinion on the merits of the claim made, directed the Respondents to dispose that representation of the Appellant. As a sequel thereto, the Respondents have considered the representation and expressed inability to accept the request and rejected the same by order Na. Ka. No. 23186/2018/XI dated 22.10.2018, which was challenged by the Appellant in W.P. No. 31627 of 2018 before this Court. As that Writ Petition was dismissed by this Court, this intra-Court appeal has been preferred by the Appellant. 2. We have heard Mr. P. Ganesan, Learned Counsel appearing for the Appellant, Mrs. A. Sri Jayanthi, Learned Special Government Pleader appearing on behalf of the Respondents and perused the materials placed on record, part from the pleadings of the parties. 3. It is settled law that transfer is an incidence of service and no employee has any vested right to claim posting at a particular place of his choice. The Writ Court was absolutely justified in dismissing the Writ Petition. 4. As we do not find any merits in the claim of the Appellant, the Writ Appeal is dismissed. No costs.
