Cosmopolitan life 'very alluring', but no ground to resist transfers: Supreme Court
Advertisement
Dismissing their appeals, the Supreme Court recently refused to entertain the petition filed by a group of government doctors who challenged their transfers from Bengaluru to other parts of Karnataka. In its order, the bench observed that the city's cosmopolitan life is 'very alluring' and cannot be a valid ground to resist transfers.
A bench comprising Justices Ujjal Bhuyan and K Vinod Chandran noted no prejudice has been caused if the doctors were transferred out of Bengaluru and emphasised the equitable need for medical services across the state.
