BY G.P.SRI.SANDESH RAJA THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 10/05/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: C.T.RAVIKUMAR, J. ---------------------------- W.P.(C)No.13197 of 2011 ---------------------------- Dated 10th May, 2011 JUDGMENT The petitioner is a Consultant in Obstetrics and Gynaecology presently working in District Hospital, Kanhangad. The petitioner is an intercaste married person and according to the petitioner, by virtue of the same, she is entitled to get a convenient transfer and posting. In the said circumstances, raising grievances against the order of transfer by which she was posted at Kanhangad the petitioner has preferred Ext.P5 representation. It is the delay in the matter of consideration of Ext.P5 representation that constrained the petitioner to file this writ petition. Obviously, the petitioner has raised all her grievances and contentions in Ext.P5 and it is still pending before the first respondent. In the said circumstances, I do not propose to consider the contentions on merits. Accordingly, this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the first respondent to consider Ext.P5 representation expeditiously, at any rate, within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. Needless to say that before passing any orders on the representation submitted by the petitioner persons who are likely to be WP(C).No.13197/2011 2 affected in case of issuance of an order in favour of the petitioner, shall also be put on notice.
