EXT.P4: TRUE COPY OF THE REPRESENTATION SUBMITTED BY THE PETITIONER DATED 05-07-2011. // TRUE COPY // TKS P.S.TO JUDGE C.T.RAVIKUMAR, J. ---------------------------- W.P.(C)No.21324 of 2011 ---------------------------- Dated 5th August, 2011 JUDGMENT The petitioner is presently working as Upper Division Clerk under the second respondent. This writ petition has been filed mainly challenging Ext.P1 order of transfer whereby he has been transferred from District Hospital, Kottayam to Taluk Head Quarters Hospital, Kanjirappally. Ext.P1 order of transfer is dated 23.5.2011 and this writ petition has been filed only on 2.8.2011. That apart, it is evident from Ext.P4 that the petitioner has already taken up his grievances before the third respondent. In the said circumstances, taking into account the fact that the petitioner has already raised his grievances against Ext.P1 through Ext.P4 and the same is pending before the third respondent, without making any observation as to the merits of the contentions raised in this writ petition as also in Ext.P4 this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the third respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P4 expeditiously, at any rate, within a period of three weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. Needless to say that any person/persons likely to be affected shall also be put on notice before passing orders on Ext.P4. Sd/- C.T.RAVIKUMAR Judge TKS
