U.O.I. vs D. MOHAN .

The Supreme Court upheld the Central Administrative Tribunal's decision regarding the transfer of Junior Engineers from Hyderabad Telecom District to Telangana District, emphasizing that the respondents could only be transferred within the erstwhile Hyderabad Telephone District without their consent, as per the instructions issued during the reorganization on 1.11.1986. The Court found that the Tribunal correctly interpreted the transfer liability based on the respondents' appointment orders, thus affirming the Tribunal's ruling to set aside the transfer order dated 26.5.1993, except for one respondent whose transfer was already canceled. The judgment reinforces the principle that transfers must adhere to the terms of appointment and organizational directives.
