    The court granted partial relief to Hemlata Kohli, a Supervisor in the Child Development Department, who challenged her transfer order dated 10.06.2026 from Rudrapur to Almora. The court found merit in her argument that after serving 26+ years in inaccessible areas, the transfer violated the Uttarakhand Annual Transfer for Public Servants Act, 2017. Justice Pankaj Purohit stayed the transfer's operation and directed the Director to reconsider her representation within two weeks, giving due weight to her extensive inaccessible area service.
