J U D G M E N T The petitioner is working as an Accountant in the office of the Kokkayar Grama Panchayat in Idukki district. The petitioner is a native of Kottayam district. She requested for transfer to Thrikkodithanam, Kumarakam or Panachickadu Grama Panchayats during general transfers in the year 2010. The same was not favourably considered. Although, for this year, the petitioner requested for transfer to Akalakunnu, Panachickadu or Thrikodithanam Grama Panchayats, the petitioner was not favoured with such a transfer. Against the same, the petitioner has filed Ext. P4 representation before the 2nd respondent. The petitioner seeks a direction to the 2nd respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext. P4 expeditiously. Having heard the learned Government Pleader also, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the 2nd respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext. P4, after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner as well as the person who will have to be displaced if the petitioner's claim is to be allowed, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
