TO JUDGE C.T.RAVIKUMAR, J. --------------------------------------- W.P(C)No.21358 of 2011 ---------------------------------------- Dated 5th August, 2011 JUDGMENT The petitioner is working as Project Officer at I.C.D.S. Urban 4, Kozhikode. This writ petition has been filed on being aggrieved by Ext.P5 order of transfer whereby the petitioner was posted to I.C.D.S. Neeleswaram. The contention of the petitioner is that despite the availability of vacancies in Kozhikode District itself she has been transferred out of Kozhikode District. Yet another contention raised by the petitioner is that during the short span of two years she has been subjected to transfer on five times. I am of the view that the petitioner has to raise all such contentions and grievances against Ext.P5 order before the third respondent. In that view of the matter, this writ petition is disposed of granting liberty to the petitioner to move the third respondent with appropriate petition raising grievances against Ext.P5 within 10 days from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. In case the petitioner prefers such a petition raising grievances against Ext.P5 within the above stipulated time the same shall be considered by the third respondent, in accordance with law, expeditiously, at any rate within six weeks from the date of receipt of WP(C).No.21358/2011 2 such petition with notice to the second respondent and any other person likely to be affected.
