Petitioner applied for transfer, as evidenced by Ext.P1, indicating his preference for a posting at Community Health Centre, Purapuzha and Primary Health Centres at Kokkayar, Peruvanthanam, Elamdesom and Kumaramangalam. According to him, he filed an objection - Ext.P2 to the provisional list of his transfer which was proposed to be confirmed by the second respondent. Petitioner contends that he was not given a transfer as he desired and therefore he filed an appeal before the first respondent. The appeal is yet to be disposed of, contends the petitioner. 2. I have heard the Government Pleader also. 3. In the facts and circumstances of the cases, I am of the view that the first respondent shall consider and pass orders on Ext.P3, after hearing the petitioner and any other affected person, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
