However, since he was serving here in the State of Uttarakhand, he has revised his option and opted for State of Uttarakhand on 04.10.2001. In any case, the petitioner has been finally allocated by the Union of India for State of U.P., the petitioner has moved a representation on 20.05.2007 before Additional Director General of Police, Uttarakhand for mutual transfer. The said representation is still pending before respondent no. 3. During the course of argument, the petitioner has submitted that respondent no. 3 may be directed to take decision on the representation of the petitioner at the earliest. In the circumstances, I direct respondent no. 3 to take decision on the representation of the petitioner dated 20.05.2007, Annexure 6 to the writ petition within a period of six weeks from the dated of production of a certified copy of this order. With this direction, the writ petition is finally disposed of. All the pending applications stand disposed of. (M.M. Ghildiyal, J.) 02.07.2007 VKS
