Transfer of women employees: HC tells to consider pleas under Rule 2

Hyderabad: A division bench of the Telangana High Court on Tuesday required the government to consider in accordance with Rule 2, women candidates seeking transfer. The bench of Chief Justice Ujjal Bhuyan and Justice Tukaramji was dealing with a writ petition filed by Sanjatha Kiranmai who contended that equal opportunity in transfer was being denied to her since she was a divorcee and married women were given priority to stay with their spouses.

The bench directed the petitioner to submit the application afresh to be considered accordingly by the government.
