Sir i am working in united bank of india as officer . transfer policy is like in my bank as 5 years in one state and after 5 years in another state for posting of an officer. I am married and my hushand is working in mnc. I have lost my child . I am single child of my parents. My mother cant sit properly because she has fracture in her waist and also has psycological problem. She used to take sleeping pills as per doctor prescribed.My father cant remember all things due to getting old. My inlaws are 70 plus. Most of time my mother in law is admitted in hospital . Her liver is almost failed.So it is difficult for them to take care my next child.we are thinking of adoption.It is important that i have to stay with her. But due my bank policy it seems impossible. As per the letter of finance ministry is under: F.No.4/9/1/2014-IR Government of India Ministry of Finance Department of Financial Services Jeevan Deep, IIIrd Floor, Parliament Street, New Delhi Dated the August 8, 2014 To accommodate as far as possible placement/transfer of married female employee, on her request, at a place where her husband is stationed or as near as possible to that place or vice versa; and To accommodate as far as possible placement/transfer of unmarried female employee, on her request, at a place where her parents, are stationed or as near as possible to that place and vice versa , as per letter of finance minister my bank has been introduced a new circular of transfer policy for female employee to stay 5 year in one state and 5 year in another state. Officer can do request for transfer to his desire place only 2 times in his whole service period. If i posted to kolkata branch to whom i take with me to take care of my child because parents and inlaws can not move with me.Being a woman i have so many duties and responsibities.For a child devlopment it is important that he will get his mother love and affection and care.Also i m only child of my parents and they are fully dependent on me. There is no one in my family who will take care my parents and child.There are so many female officers who are facing same problem.Please sir help me in this matter so that i can stay my parents and child.also i have asthma ,spondylitis, arthitics problem. So my medical problems and family situation can help me in my transfer matter

Ms. Sunita,
Your case is more of a compassionate nature, rather than claiming your transfer & posting as a matter of right, as against the transfer policy of your bank.
So, legally, you cannot exert any right on the authorities on such grounds as you narrated. However, it is always at the discretion of the competent authority to accommodate a person with problems like yours on compassionate and humanitarian grounds.
You may better, not only show all medical records of your parents and in-laws, but also convince the concerned HR authorities with the request to help you.

Law may not be of much help in providing immediate relief to your problem.
An officer in Bank can not claim transfer / posting at a particular place as matter of right. Officer has to give consent for transfer at any place in India.
You can represent to higher officials through proper channel. Can take help of Association for relief.
You may shift your parents with you, Bank provides accommodation at place of posting.
Legal step may spoil the case.
