TGS KURIAN JOSEPH, J. ---------------------------------------------- W.P.(C) No.17724 of 2004 ---------------------------------------------- Dated 30th March, 2007. J U D G M E N T Petitioners pray for a direction for repatriation to the parent Revenue Department. When the writ petition came up for hearing on an earlier occasion, this Court directed the petitioners to file an affidavit as to whether they were willing to be posted in the original post of Lower Division Clerk. Accordingly, they have filed their affidavit expressing their willingness. I quash Ext.P6. There will be a direction to the second respondent to consider the request afresh for repatriation in the light of the affidavit referred to above and pass appropriate orders thereon in accordance with law, within one month from the date of production of a copy of the judgment. Petitioners contend that on such repatriation to the parent department, they may be permitted to pursue their grievance for further promotion. The said issue is not the subject matter of this writ petition and hence it is for the petitioners if required, to pursue the matter in appropriate proceedings. The writ petition is disposed of as above. KURIAN JOSEPH, JUDGE.
