SIRI JAGAN, J. ------------------------------------ WP(C) NO. 27292 OF 2007 - Y ------------------------------------- Dated this the 13th day of September, 2007 J U D G M E N T The complaint of the petitioner in this writ petition is that after completing just one year in the present station, the petitioner is being transferred to accommodate the fourth respondent, that too during the middle of the year, after the general transfers are already over in May. The petitioner, however, now confines her prayer for a direction to the second respondent to consider and pass appropriate orders on Ext.P4. 2. I have heard the learned Government Pleader as well as the learned Standing Counsel for the second respondent. 3. In the facts and circumstances of the case, I do not think it necessary to issue notice to the fourth respondent, now. After hearing both sides, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the second respondent to consider and pass appropriate orders on Ext.P4, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within a period of WP(C) NO. 27292 of 2007 :-2-: one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment, after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner as well as the fourth respondent.
