She was desirous of getting a transfer to the Primary Health Centre, at Padanna, Cheruvathoor, Kayyoor, Olat or Mavalakadappuram. By Ext.P10, ignoring her option, she has been transferred to the Primary Health Centre, Mangalpadi, which, according to the petitioner, is a remote and inconvenient place. It is also pointed out that persons junior in service have been accommodated in the place opted by her. She has also filed Ext.P12 representation before the 2nd respondent, by way of an appeal against Ext.P10. Petitioner prays, the 2nd respondent may be directed to consider and pass orders on Ext.P12. 2. I heard the learned Government Pleader. WP(C)16895/2007 : 2 : 3.
