He submits that subsequent to Ext.P3, Exts.P4, P5 & P6 transfer orders have been passed in relation to other persons. 2. After having heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader, I dispose of this writ petition directing the 2nd respondent to look into Ext.P3 with particular reference to the illness suffered by the petitioner and take a decision thereon within six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. Petitioner shall produce a certified copy of this judgment along with a copy of the writ petition before the 2nd respondent for compliance. V.GIRI, JUDGE vps
