Wife’s anxiety disorder not enough to stop CRPF man’s transfer, says Gauhati High Court
A CRPF Assistant Sub-Inspector's attempt to halt his transfer from Guwahati to Chhattisgarh has been rejected by the Gauhati High Court. The court ruled that the man's sole caregiving duties for his wife, who suffers from an anxiety disorder, did not provide sufficient grounds to intervene with the transfer order. Justice Sanjay Kumar Medhi stated that the grounds for interference with a transfer order are exceedingly narrow, barring any malice or rule violations.
The court granted the petitioner 15 days to prepare for his wife's treatment and the opportunity to relocate.
