JUDGMENT : 1. Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and the respondents. 2. Petitioners are aggrieved by the order of transfer. 3. Transfer of employee is an incidence of service. It is not the case of the petitioners that the posts they are holding, are not transferable within the zone of University. It is also not the case of the petitioners that the authority passed the order of transfer lacks jurisdiction. 4. The grievance of petitioner nos. 1 and 3 is that the authorities have transferred them without following the norms. 5. So far as petitioner no. 2 is concerned, learned counsel submits that petitioner no.2 has already retired from service. 6. Without going into the merit of the case, the writ application is disposed of with liberty to the petitioner nos. 1 and 3 to represent the Hon'ble Chancellor of the Universities for consideration of their cases. 7. In case, such representation is filed by petitioners before the Hon'ble Chancellor, who shall examine the case of the petitioners and pass reasonable order within a maximum period of six months from the date of receipt of such representation along with a copy of this order. 8. It goes without saying that the respondents shall take step for payment of salary and other allowance of petitioners anterior to the date of order of transfer before taking any decision on the representation filed by the petitioners.
