J U D G M E N T The petitioner is working as Sub Registrar in the Registration Department. This writ petition has been filed challenging Ext.P1 order of transfer. As per Ext.P1, the petitioner is transferred and posted as Chitty Auditor in Sub Registry, Ernakulam and in place of the petitioner, the 3rd respondent has been transferred and posted. The contention of the petitioner is that going by the relevant norms for transfer, the petitioner should not have been disturbed from the present station taken into account the fact that she is left with hardly nine months to retire from service on superannuation. This crucial aspect was not seen considered by the respondents while issuing Ext.P1 order of transfer. In such circumstances I am inclined to dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the 2nd respondent to consider Ext.P3 representation expeditiously, at any rate WP(C).No.19554/2011-T. 2 within three weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment with notice to the petitioner and the 3rd respondent. The Writ Petition is disposed of as above. C.T. RAVIKUMAR, (Judge) Kvs/-
