TO JUDGE VK P.R. RAMACHANDRA MENON, J. .............................................. W.P.(C).NO.28441 OF 2011 ............................................. Dated this the 2nd day of November, 2011. JUDGMENT The petitioner who was working as Supervisor in the Integrated Child Development Service in the Project Office (additional), Vythiri from January, 2011 onwards, was also given the additional charge in respect of the similar post in Kalpetta. While so, the petitioner was transferred from Vythiri to ICDS Project Office (additional), Thanur as per Ext.P1 order. Because of the hardships, the petitioner preferred Ext.P2 representation before the first respondent. Pursuant to this, the first respondent issued Ext.P3 'modified order' dated 19.10.2011; whereby the third respondent has been transferred and posted from ICDS Project Office, Kozhikode to ICDS Project Office (additional), Thanur in Malappuram District, the place to which the petitioner was transferred as per Ext.P1; however omitting to give necessary posting to the petitioner, thus virtually making two persons to work at the same place. The petitioner has preferred Ext.P4 representation before the first respondent seeking for immediate intervention by W.P.(C).NO.28441 OF 2011 : 2 : retaining the petitioner at Vythiri. The petitioner has also pointed out the existence of three other vacancies in Ext.P4, besides the vacancy at Vythiri and the relief sought for in this writ petition is only for consideration of Ext.P4 and to pass appropriate orders within a reasonable time. 2. Heard learned Government Pleader as well. 3. Considering the nature of the contentions raised and the relief proposed to be given, this Court does not find it necessary to issue notice to the third respondent. The writ petition is disposed of, directing the first respondent to consider Ext.P4 and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law at the earliest, at any rate, within 'two weeks' from the date of production of a copy of this judgment. The interim order dated 25.10.2011 to have the petitioner retained at the present place at ICDS, Vythiri, will continue till such time. The petitioner shall produce a copy of this judgment and a copy of the writ petition before the first respondent for further steps. P.R. RAMACHANDRA MENON, JUDGE. cl
