TO JUDGE tss C.T. RAVIKUMAR, J. -------------------------------------------- W.P.(C). NO. 21792 OF 2011 -------------------------------------------- Dated this the 10th day of August, 2011 JUDGMENT The petitioner is working as a Shanti under the first respondent. This Writ Petition has been filed mainly challenging Ext.P2 to the extent it orders transfer of the petitioner from the Chekam Devaswom to Plackkad Devaswom. Feeling aggrieved by the said order, the petitioner filed Ext.P3 appeal before the second respondent. It is still pending. In the meanwhile, pointing out the available vacancies in certain Devaswoms, the petitioner has submitted Ext.P6 representation before the same authority. It is also pending. In the said circumstances, without making any observation as to the merits of the contentions raised in this Writ Petition, it is disposed of with a direction to the second respondent to consider and pass orders on Exts.P3 taking Ext.P6 into consideration expeditiously, at any rate, within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment with notice to the persons who are likely to be affected.
