However, despite representations made, he has not been relieved from Edavanna in order to join at Vaidhyuthi Bhavan, Thiruvananthapuram. Complaining of this, the writ petition is filed. 2. Standing counsel appearing for the Board on instruction submits that it is for nonavailability of a substitute that there occurred delay in relieving the petitioner. He submits that a substitute will be posted at Edavanna, Malappuram within one month and the petitioner will be relieved immediately thereafter. 3. Though there occurred delay, still having regard to the difficulty of the Board in identifying a substitute to relieve the petitioner, I feel the submission made by the counsel for the Board should satisfy the petitioner. WPC 34429/09 :2 : Therefore, recording the submission made as above, this writ petition is closed. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
