Apparently, he had made a request in this regard even earlier as evidenced by Exhibit-P5. But that have not been considered so far. Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Government Pleader, the writ petition is disposed of directing the 1st respondent to consider the options given by the petitioner under Exhibit-P4 in the course of effecting the transfers of Attenders within the district for the year 2008 and at any rate, within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. It is made clear that the directions will be operative only if transfers W.P ( C) No. 17408 of 2008 2 have not already been effected within the district by the 1st respondent. Petitioner shall produce a copy of the writ petition along with copy of this judgment before the 1st respondent, for compliance.
