https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=174646 Transfer of a servant in a transferable post is an incident of service, so an employee has no right to insist on posting at one place and must comply unless the transfer is stayed or cancelled. Mere pendency of a representation does not excuse absence from duty. Under Service Regulation No. 113, summary discharge was permissible for continued absence or overstaying leave after warning, and the warning need not be in any particular form if it clearly conveys the consequence of non-compliance. Service of the registered notice was treated as proved on the postal endorsement, and the employee failed to rebut that presumption. The discharge was therefore upheld as a lawful consequence of unauthorised absence and disregard of the transfer order. en-us Fri, 31 Mar 1989 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 22 Apr 2025 10:43:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=174646 Transfer of a servant in a transferable post is an incident of service, so an employee has no right to insist on posting at one place and must comply unless the transfer is stayed or cancelled.
