Clause 22, MP Civil Services Transfer Policy | Transfer Within One Year of Superannuation Violates Rule & Must Be Quashed: MP HC Jabalpur
The Madhya Pradesh High Court has held that transferring a government employee within one year of retirement violates Clause 22 of the state’s transfer policy, which explicitly prohibits such moves absent extraordinary circumstances. This ruling reinforces pension preparation rights and curbs arbitrary administrative actions that disrupt retirement planning, protecting thousands of state employees nearing service end.
