No.21178 of 2010 (V) --------------------------------- Dated, this the 12th day of July, 2010 J U D G M E N T The petitioner entered in the services of respondent Board as a temple employee as Nadaswaram. 2. According to him, he had three years and one month service at Cheruvally Devaswom, and thereupon he requested for a transfer to Chirakadavu Devaswom. By Ext.P1 order dated 24/05/2010, his request was allowed. However, the 4th respondent filed an appeal against Ext.P1, resulting in Ext.P2 order dated 25/06/2010 of the 1st respondent allowing the appeal and posting the 4th respondent at Chirakadavu Devaswom, and consequently, the petitioner was posted to Kodungoor Devaswom, where the 4th respondent was working. This order was passed without hearing the petitioner. 3. Aggrieved by Ext.P2, the petitioner filed Ext.P3 representation to the 1st respondent. Report of the 3rd respondent was called for and Ext.P4 is the report filed. A reading of Ext.P4 WP(C) No.21178/2010 -2- shows that the petitioner has grievances to be considered by the authorities. 4. Be that as it may, fact remains that as at present, the 1st respondent is seized of Ext.P3, which the 1st respondent has to consider in the light of Ext.P4. Therefore, this writ petition is disposed of directing the 1st respondent to consider Ext.P3 in the light of Ext.P4 and with notice to the petitioner and 4th respondent. This the 1st respondent shall do as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within four weeks of production of a copy of this judgment. This writ petition is disposed of as above.
