J U D G M E N T Petitioner is a Santhi under the Travancore Devaswom Board. He has submitted Ext.P1 application within the time stipulated for submission of application prior to the issuance of general transfer orders. The grievance of the petitioner is that Ext.P1 application submitted by the petitioner was not considered while issuing Ext.P2. As per Ext.P2, ignoring the claim of the petitioner for a posting at any of the temples of choice viz., P.D.Manikandeswaram, Thamarakudi Devaswom and Kottathala Devaswom some other applicants were preferred. Feeling aggrieved by the said action on the part of the respondents in ignoring his requests the petitioner preferred Ext.P3 appeal before the 2nd respondent and it is still pending. In the said circumstance, without going to the merits of the contentions, this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the 2nd respondent to WP(C).No.19591/2011-Y. 2 consider and pass orders on Ext.P3 appeal expeditiously, at any rate within a period of three weeks. Needless to say that before issuing orders thereon, the persons/persons likely to be affected shall also be put on notice. C.T.RAVIKUMAR, (Judge) Kvs/-
