RAVIKUMAR, J. -------------------------------------------- W.P.(C). NO. 8993 OF 2010 -------------------------------------------- Dated this the 24th day of March, 2010 JUDGMENT The petitioner is a Pharmacist in the Insurance Medical Service and she has filed this Writ Petition challenging Ext.P1 order of transfer dated 10.3.2010. The grievance of the petitioner is that she joined the present station only on 22.9.2009 and it is hardly within six months that Ext.P1 has been issued transferring her from Perinad to Keralapuram. Raising grievance against the said order of transfer, the petitioner has filed Ext.P2 representation dated 12.3.10. However, without looking into the grievances raised as per Ext.P2, the draft transfer list was finalised ordering transfer of the petitioner from Perinad to Keralapuram. The petitioner has raised several grounds to assail the said order of transfer. 2. The learned Government Pleader, upon instruction, submitted that pursuant to Ext.P1 order of transfer, the petitioner was relieved on 17.3.2010. It is further submitted that the present transfer is, in fact, within the station as she was posted within 7 Kms. of the W.P.(C) NO.8993/2010 2 present station. Considering the fact that pursuant to Ext.P1 order, the petitioner was relieved from E.S.I Dispensary, Perinad, this Writ Petition is disposed of with a direction to the second respondent to consider Ext.P2 representation and pass orders thereon expeditiously, at any rate, within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
