    Case Summary: WMP/18111/2026 The Madras High Court continued an interim stay on Union Bank of India's transfer policy (Circular No. 101885-2026) regarding Clause 5.4, finding that mandatory longer-tenure transfers for female officers violated Government of India guidelines requiring transfers near spouses/family. The court found the policy's provisions did not adequately comply with central directives from 2014 and 2024 mandating accommodation of female officers near family members, though it permitted transfers for officers who voluntarily submitted preferences and allowed the matter to proceed to final hearing. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
