THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY W.P.No.21664 of 2005 Date:05.10.2005 N.K.Madhukar Rao. --------PETITIONER The AP Tansco and another. ---------RESPONDENTS ORDER: The petitioner is working as an Additional Assistant Engineer in A.P.Transco at Nirmal, Adilabad District, the 1st respondent. He claims to have submitted a representation, dated 22.08.2005, with a request to transfer his services from A.P.Transco, the 1st respondent, to A.P.Northern Power Distribution Company Limited, Warangal, the 2nd respondent. He has stated certain domestic reasons and offered to forego his seniority in that post, in case he is transferred. His grievance is that his application has not been considered by the respondents so far, and that he is put to hardship. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the respondents. The petitioner seeks transfer from the 1st respondent-organization to the 2nd respondent-company. The question as to whether such inter-company transfers are permissible and if so, whether the petitioner had fulfilled the conditions therefor, needs to be considered by the respondents. This Court cannot make any pronouncement on those aspects at this stage. It is true that the representation was made by the petitioner hardly a month ago, and it cannot be said that there was undue delay on the part of the respondents in considering the same. At the same time, it is better that such representation is attended to, at the earliest possible time. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing that the respondents shall pass appropriate orders on the representation submitted by the petitioner on 22.08.2005, within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. _________ 05.10.2005 Jsu
