He has submitted Annexure P-11 application and the same has been duly forwarded as per Annexure P-12.

According to the petitioner, though the 5th respondent had joined duty as per the earlier transfer order, but subsequently he has been sent back to Kotla. Be that as it may. Since the petitioner has sought voluntary retirement w.e.f. 30th November, 2010, it is only appropriate not to disturb him in the meanwhile and it will be open to respondents No. 1 to 4 to accommodate the 5th respondent w.e.f. 1.12.2010 at Government Senior Secondary School, Kotla. Ordered accordingly. It is made clear that the decision on the application for orders for voluntary retirement shall be taken within a month from today on production of copy of this judgment alongwith the copy of the writ petition before the Director concerned. With the above observations, the writ petition stands disposed of so also the pending application(s), if any. Copy Dasti.
