I am working in a private limited company. Here, one of my senior HR managers has given me a transfer order to change my duty from one district to another place. However, this has happened due to nonsensical official politics. Can I stop this transfer through a legal process? Please help me.

Your curiosity about going legal seems to indicate that you have tried convincing the management and bosses to stop such a transfer but have not succeeded. Wait for other members to give their views on the legal aspect; but before that, please go through your appointment letter and check if the "TRANSFER CLAUSE" is mentioned or not. Every company has the right to transfer its employees to a location where the need arises. If the appointment letter specifies this, you cannot pursue legal action.
I suggest you talk to management, providing personal reasons (such as family commitments) for not wanting to transfer, rather than pursuing legal action for what may be considered unwarranted issues.

Further to what Hiral Mehta mentioned, please note that 'going legal' is NOT the solution for every HR problem. In fact, many times such a step only DEEPENS or AGGRAVATES the problem and the consequent finding of a mutually viable solution. While you mentioned your view of the reasons, the management's views CAN be different.
Understanding Your Situation
Coming to your actual situation, you haven't mentioned WHY you don't wish to move to the new location. Are there any official reasons, or are they only personal? In general, it's always wise to handle such situations amicably. The more realistic solution for a worst-case scenario would be to change the job rather than going legal, especially where there are NO monetary or long-term issues involved.
All the best.
