"Players and everyone else need to live with this virus; probably they have to get used to it that there is a virus and that it will be around. Players might end up catching it, and you got to live with it." Though social distancing is possible in cricket to a certain

(Dhiraj Singh Thakur) Judge Srinagar:

" It is therefore, humbly prayed that a direction may kindly be given to the In Charge Sub District Jail, Kupwara to release the petitioners on bail after perusal of the report certified copy of which is placed on record and C. D file is called and the objections are called from the concerned prosecution agency and the arguments of both sides are heard in this behalf and till the instant bail application is finally decided the petitioners are making out a prima facie case for their release on interim bail and the accused may kindly be granted interim bail till the petition is finally decided as the same has been rules by the Hon'ble Supreme Court and the same prayer is made before this Hon'ble Court."

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that despite the fact that the petitioner approached initially the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Srinagar, for registration of case against the respondent No. 6, by filing application/complaint under Section 156(3) Cr. PC, but even on the directions of the concerned Magistrate, the Crime Branch has not acted upon the directions. It is further submitted that the petitioner approached the respondent Director School Education, and brought into his notice the fraudulent approach adopted by the respondent No. 6 in fabricating the documents for excluding the role of petitioner as Chairman of the Holy Mission School, Narbal, Budgam, but no action is taken. It is submitted that on failure of the official respondents to take action in tune with the statutory provisions, the petitioner has no option but to approach this Court for seeking the relief as prayed for.

"6. Having said so, it would be open to the authorities concerned to consider the representation, if any, that is pending before them. However, no mandamus can be issued by this Court for enforcement of the clauses contained in the Transfer Policy for the purpose of enforcement.

02. In the present petition, the petitioner has impugned the order bearing endorsement No. GMS/B/20-1198 dated 12.03.2020, whereby, petitioner has, again, been transferred with immediate effect.

03. Since transfer is an exigency of service and it is the prerogative of the employer to see at what place the service of an employee can be utilized properly in the larger public interest. An employee holding transferable post has no right to insist that he should be allowed to serve at a particular place for a particular period.

b) A writ of mandamus, commanding the respondents to consider the case of the petitioner for inter-District transfer in light of the policy in vogue and also in light of the Medical Board recommendations."

2. The petitioner-detenu has challenged the order of detention on the following grounds:
