JUDGMENT The petitioner is presently working as an Upper Division Clerk in Thanur Grama Panchayat in Malappuram District. He is a native of Kollam District. Before the general transfer of this year, he represented for a transfer to Clappana, Kulasekharapuram or Oachira Grama Panchayath in Kollam District. But, ignoring his claim, Ext.P3 transfer order has been issued. So, he preferred Ext.P5 representation before the Deputy Director of Panchayaths. The petitioner apprehends that his entire outstation service in Malappuram District was not reckoned for the purpose of taking a decision on his claim. Only his service in the present station was adverted to. This grievance had been highlighted in Ext.P5. The petitioner prays, the first respondent may be directed to pass orders on Ext.P5. W.P.(C).19805 of 2007 :: 2 :: 2. Learned Government Pleader, upon instruction, submitted that Ext.P5 is received and pending. This writ petition is, therefore, disposed of directing the first respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P5, in accordance with law, within six weeks from the date of production of a copy of this judgment. If the petitioner wants to supplement the contentions raised in Ext.P5, he may file an additional representation, while producing this judgment before the first respondent.
