Though she was not immediately relieved from Mavelikkara, suddenly by an E-Mail communication dated 17.4.2007, the petitioner was ordered to hand over charge to the Junior Manager, even though the third respondent who is to replace her has not been relieved. She also submits that the third respondent is not willing to join at Mavelikkara. The petitioner detailed her difficulties and hardships that may be caused to her, if she is forced to take charge at Chengannur to the 2nd respondent. The petitioner highlights the fact that she is a scheduled caste and she is entitled to special consideration in the matter of transfer. However, for the present, the petitioner seeks only a direction to the first respondent to consider Ext.P4 and pass appropriate orders thereon. In the above circumstances, I direct the first W.P.(C)No.13597/2007 :2: respondent to consider Ext.P4 and pass appropriate orders thereon, as expeditiously as possible. Till final orders are passed on Ext.P4, the petitioner shall be retained at Mavelikkara. The writ petition is disposed of as above.
