Your facts are incomplete and vague. How can one give you accurate and correct opinion without actually seeing the relevant documents, on the basis of incomplete information?
While on the one hand, you say that it was a transfer from one department to another, on the other hand, you have also mentioned that “No mode of appointment was mentioned in the advertisement for the post”. Thus, it appears that the employee has joined in a new post on the basis of an advertisement, which also mentioned about a fresh 2 years’ probation period. Probation itself implies “subject to satisfactory completion of probation period”, which may imply that it may not be a confirmed job. But, then one has to see the full details to do justice to your case.
So, in view of these complicated issues involved, it would be advisable for you to show your detailed documents to some expert (along with relevant rules/orders) and obtain his opinion, instead of asking opinion of someone who has not seen the papers.
