As per Ext.P2 the petitioner was transferred from Palakkad District and posted as District Lottery officer, Kasaragod. Feeling aggrieved by the said order of transfer, the petitioner has preferred Ext.P3 representation. Since Ext.P3 is pending before the first respondent, without making any observation as to the merits of the claims and contentions of the petitioner this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the first respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P3, expeditiously, at any rate, within a period of one month from the date of receipt of copy of this judgment. Needless to say that if any other person is likely to be effected by a favourable consideration of Ext.P3 representation the said person shall also be put on notice before passing orders on Ext.P3.
