Quick Summary

An employee working in Chennai is seeking a transfer to Mumbai to be with his wife, whose elderly parents depend on her. While departmental transfers for spouses are considered, the employee's superiors are reportedly suggesting resignation. Advice suggests that transfers are not a right but a request, and the employee should formally apply through the proper channels, potentially with the help of a trade union. The suggestion that the wife's parents cannot relocate due to age is also questioned.

The transferY for spouse cases can be considerd but administration may not be considered. You shall apply to the HOD of your state to consider your request to Mumbai.

You do not have an enforceable right. Just request and request alone would suffice.

You have to give a request in writing to your employer/competent authority through proper channel and wait for the reply.
Nobody will officially ask you to resign the job,don't exaggerate your question for the purpose of attracting sympathised answers.

I agree with Shri T Kalaiselvan. Kindly note that the Employees cannot demand transfer as a matter of right. Considering administrative exigencies, the employer may or may not permit your request transfer. At the same time, nobody in the management can say "officially" to you to resign. You may approach the registered Trade Union (if any) in your organization and try for the transfer through them, as per the laid down procedure.

Only persuasion is your rescue.

The facts posted suggest that there is a possibility that your wife could get transfer to Chennai. In the present times, seventies is just the beginning of the old age. It is unconvincing that the wife's parents are unable to relocate.
