CBEC Officers don't obey transfer orders

CBEC issued transfer orders on 9th June, 17th June, 17th August and 20th August of officers from Assistant Commissioner to Chief Commissioner. On 24th September, Board has realised that many of the transferred officers are not relieved to join their new places of posting.

Now, Board has decided that all the transferred officers unless retained or stayed by Courts, stand relieved by 30.09.2015.

Board wants a compliance report by 5th October 2015. If they stand relieved, what is there to comply?

The officers in the field alone are not to blame. The Board recently transferred some officers who were already transferred and joined in their new places in obedience to Board's transfer orders.
