CASE SUMMARY: WPSS/1532/2026 Sri Prahalad Bhatnagar challenged his transfer order dated 03.06.2026 from District Industries Center, Uttarkashi to Almora. The petitioner contended he had worked in Uttarkashi for only 11 months (since 14.06.2025 on request transfer) and was not included in the Department's eligibility list dated 30.04.2026, yet was suddenly added by the Transfer Committee. The court, finding merit in these contentions, granted a stay on the transfer order's operation until the next hearing. Respondents were directed to file counter-affidavits within four weeks, with the case listed for 24.08.2026. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
