1. ' AQEEL AHMAD KHAN (CHAIRMAN).---The appellant who is a Sub-Engineer, was transferred and posted in Municipal Corporation, Multan on 8-7-1996. After about 8 months, he has been ordered to be transferred from Vehari to Lodheran vide order dated 6-8-1997. The departmental representation filed by the appellant against this order was rejected on 16-8-1997.
2. I have heard the learned counsel for the appellant, District Attorney for respondents Nos. 1 and 2 and the learned counsel for respondent No.3. I find force in the contention of the learned counsel for the appellant that this premature transfer has been made without any valid reason. There is no mention of any ground for this premature transfer either in the impugned order or in the order rejecting departmental representation. Thus, I find that impugned order of transfer is clearly violative of the Transfer Policy.
3. ' On the foregoing reasons the appeal is accepted and the impugned order is set aside.
