JUSTICE ANTONY DOMINIC TUESDAY, THE 3RD NOVEMBER 2009 / 12TH KARTHIKA 1931 WP(C).No. 28455 of 2009(B) -------------------------- PETITIONER(S): --------------- 1. SANIL RAJ.D., JUNIOR HEALTH INSPECTOR GRADE-II, COCHIN CORPORATION. 2. P.K.BINDU, JUNIOR HEALTH INSPECTOR GRADE-II, CORPORATION OF THIRUVANANTHAPURAM. BY ADV. SRI.K.MOHANAKANNAN SMT.A.R.PRAVITHA RESPONDENT(S): --------------- 1. THE SECRETARY TO GOVERNMENT, LOCAL SELF GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT, SECRETARIAT, THIRUVANANTHAPURAM. 2. THE DIRECTOR OF URBAN AFFAIRS, THIRUVANANTHAPURAM. BY GOVT. PLEADER SMT. ANU SIVARAMAN THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 03/11/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. -------------------------------------------------- W.P.(C) NO.28455 OF 2009 (B) -------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 3rd day of November, 2009 J U D G M E N T First petitioner is working as Junior Health Inspector Grd.II in Cochin Corporation and is stated to be a native of Thiruvananthapuram District. Second Petitioner is also working as Junior Health Inspector Grd.-II in Thiruvananthapuram and is stated to be a native of Kottayam District. 2. The 2nd petitioner submitted Ext.P4 to the 2nd respondent, for a mutual transfer, enclosing Ext.P5 the consent letter of the first petitioner. According to the petitioners, although their recruitment is a District wise one, the request as made by Ext.P4 is permissible in terms of Ext.P8. Petitioners are also referring to Ext.P7 issued by the 2nd respondent which suggests that it is permissible to allow such request. 3. Now that orders have not been passed on Ext.P4, I do not think it is necessary for this court to deal with the objection raised by the Government Pleader that the recruitment being a District wise one it is impermissible. Therefore, without expressing anything on WPC.No.28455 /09 :2 : the merits of the claim I dispose of this writ petition directing the 2nd respondent to consider Ext.P4, in the light of Ext.P5, as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within 6 weeks from the date of production of a copy of the judgment along with a copy of the writ petition. Petitioner shall produce a copy of the judgment along with a copy of the writ petition before the 2nd respondent for compliance. (ANTONY DOMINIC) JUDGE vi/
