J U D G M E N T The petitioner, who was working as a Supervisor in the Integrated Child Development Services Project, has filed this writ petition aggrieved by her transfer as per Ext.P1 from Kozhikode Urban-III to ICDS, Areekode, Malappuram District. According to the petitioner, she is a person who is suffering from a defect of her lumbar pain. Consequently, she has to wear a belt and is not a position to undertake long journeys. Considering her pathetic health condition, she had been granted a transfer to Kozhikode on a request submitted by her in the year 2010. However, the present transfer order has been issued without considering any of the above facts. The petitioner also points out that there are two vacancies available at Kozhikode, one at Vellimadukunnu and another at Kozhikode Urban-I, to one of which she could be posted. 2. The petitioner has submitted Ext.P2 representation WP(C).No.34027/2011. 2 against her transfer to the second respondent. She seeks the issue of appropriate directions for consideration of her representation. 3. I have heard the learned Govt.Pleader also. 4. Since Ext.P2 is pending consideration of the second respondent, I am of the view that this writ petition can be disposed of directing the second respondent to consider the petitioner's representation. 5. This writ petition is accordingly disposed of directing the second respondent to consider the representation submitted by the petitioner, evidenced herein by Ext.P2, in accordance with law and to pass appropriate orders thereon, as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
