In terms of the provisions of the Administrative Tribunals Act, the case needs to filed at the place where the cause of action has arisen fully or partly or at the place of posting or before the Principal Bench, New Delhi. In exceptional cases, the case could be filed before any other Bench with the permission of the Chairman.

Transfer to home town depends solely on the existence of vacancy, not by replacement of some one else. Better check if some vacancy existed at Lucknow in your cadre before you decide to approach CAT. Otherwise there will be no use in wasting time and money by going to CAT.
