TO JUDGE VK C.T. RAVIKUMAR, J - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - W.P.(C)No. 21625 OF 2011 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dated this the 9th day of August, 2011 J U D G M E N T In this writ petition Ext.P1 order of transfer is under challenge. As per the same the petitioner who is working as Senior Superintendent in Electrical Division Punalur has been transferred and posted to Electrical Circle, Tirur. Various contentions have been raised to challenge Ext.P1. It is contended that the request of the petitioner for a transfer to native district is not so far been considered. It is further contended that she had undergone 3 major surgeries. Ext.P1 would reveal that a large number of Senior Superintendents under the Board have been transferred as per Ext.P1. In the said circumstances, I am of the view that in case the petitioner has any grievance against Ext.P1, he has to raise such grievances before the Chief Engineer, the second respondent. In fact, the petitioner has already approached the said authority through Ext.P8 representation. In the said circumstances, without making any observation as to the merits of the contentions raised in this writ petition, it is WPC.No.21625/2011 : 2 : disposed of with a direction to the second respondent to consider Ext.P8 representation and pass appropriate orders thereon, expeditiously, at any rate, within a period of one month from the date of receipt of copy of this judgment. Needless to say that in case, a favourable consideration would adversely affect any other person or persons such person/persons shall also be put on notice before passing passing orders on Ext.P8. In case, no substitute has already been posted to the place of the petitioner, petitioner shall be permitted to continue in the present station itself till a decision is taken on Ext.P8. Sd/- (C.T.
