SURENDRA MOHAN, J. ------------------------------------------------------------ W.P(C) NO: 26768 OF 2011 ----------------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 11th October, 2011. JUDGMENT The petitioner who is working as a Peon in the third respondent's office has filed this writ petition challenging Ext.P2 order by which he has been transferred from Wadakkancherry to Pazhayannur. According to the petitioner, the transfer has been effected in order to accommodate one A.H. Shamsudeen who was working at Pazhayannur. The petitioner has submitted Ext.P3 representation to the second respondent, setting out his grievances. He complains that no orders have been passed thereon till date. 2. Smt. Laly Vincent, Special Govt. Pleader for Scheduled Castes/Scheduled Tribes opposes this writ petition. According to the counsel Ext.P2 order has not even been communicated to the petitioner or sought to be given effect to. However, since Ext.P3 is pending before the second respondent, the same would be considered and appropriate orders passed thereon, without delay. 3. Since the grievances of the petitioner are being considered by the second respondent, I do not propose to consider the WPC 26768/2011 2 contentions of the petitioner on merits. It is sufficient that Ext.P3 is directed to be disposed of on an early date. 4. This writ petition is accordingly disposed of directing the second respondent to consider the representation submitted by the petitioner evidenced herein by Ext.P3, in accordance with law and to pass appropriate orders thereon as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. Until Ext.P3 is finally disposed of, the petitioner shall not be relieved from his present place of posting. Sd/- K. SURENDRA MOHAN Judge jj P.S.to Judge WPC 26768/2011 3
