(Hindi) in Government VHSS, Pakalkuri. Petitioner's grievance in this writ petition is that while the petitioner was working at Government Model Boys Higher Secondary School, Thycaud, he was transferred to Pakalkuri, which is 60 kms. away from Thycaud without reference to the seniority of the petitioner and the 4th respondent, who is far junior to the petitioner has been transferred to Karamana, by Ext.P3 order.

Detailing the petitioner's grievances, the petitioner has filed Ext.P4 representation before the 1st respondent. The petitioner seeks a direction to the 1st respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P4 expeditiously. 2. I have heard the learned Government Pleader also. 3. Having heard both sides, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the 1st respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P4, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within two months from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this judgment, after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner and the 4th respondent.
