The order of transfer was not stayed of this Court and it took effect. Later, by an interim order passed on 5-12-2008 this Court directed the Commissioner, Civil Supplies to consider whether the petitioner can be transferred back to Kollam District and posted against one of the three retirement vacancies that had arisen in that district on 1-12-2008. Pursuant to the directions issued by this Court, the Commissioner Civil Supplies passed an order dated 11-12-2008 transferring the petitioner and posting him as Senior Superintendent in the District Supply Office, Kollam. A copy of the said order was made available to me by the learned Government Pleader appearing for the W.P.(C) 15088/08 -2- respondent. In my opinion, since the petitioner stands transferred back to Kollam, the relief prayed for in the writ petition has become infructuous. This writ petition is accordingly closed as infructuous.
