Respected Jurists,
At the onset, while humbly marking my deepest gratitude towards you all and this great forum from where I have been immensely benefitted, I again seek your kind expertise on the facts and circumstances appended below...
(i) that, I had joined the Govt. service on 30th Jan, 2004 at DRDO, Min. of Defence.
(ii) that, consequent to my selection in present Department of Atomic Energy, I did submit my Technical Resignation in my previous department thus, enabling self to avail the past service benefits.
(iii) that, I joined my present workplace on the 25th Jan, 2010.
(iv) that, as per instructions contained in the Office Memorandum No. 20014/2/83-E.IV dated 14th Dec’, 1983 issued by Dept. of Expenditure, Min. of Finance, Govt. of India I am eligible for CHOICE POSTING. (Copy attached for kind perusal.)
(v) that, under an RTI reply my department has admitted that they follow the above cited Office Memorandum as their transfer policy.
(vi) that, it is pertinent to submit here that as many as 04 analogous incumbents are there in this department having all India service liability.
(vii) that, my old aged mother is suffering from Cancer, therefore, her condition genuinely and essentially warrants my attention and service.

Where as, all other eligible and even some non-eligible colleagues were granted Choice Posting.

In light of these submissions, I require your expert guidance please :
a) whether, I can get any relief from the Hon’ble Judiciary by means of writ or I have to approach the relevant CAT bench for the same.
b) what should be the grounds for my prayer before the Hon’ble Judiciary.
I shall be ever grateful to you.
Thanking you,
