C.T.RAVIKUMAR, J. ---------------------------- W.P.(C)No.18344 of 2011 ---------------------------- Dated 7th July, 2011 JUDGMENT The petitioner who is a Senior Field Assistant in Kallala Factory in Ernakulam District of the Plantation Corporation of Kerala Ltd. is transferred and posted to Thannithode Estate of the Plantation Corporation as per Ext.P2. It is challenging Ext.P2 order of transfer that this writ petition has been filed. The contention of the petitioner is that Ext.P2 order has been passed in violation of the principles of natural justice and the right to life is also violated by its issuance. Apart from such vague contentions no sustainable ground has been raised to challenge Ext.P2. In the said circumstances, Ext.P2 cannot be subjected to judicial review based on such vague averments. However, in case the petitioner is aggrieved by Ext.P2 order it will be open to him to prefer a representation against Ext.P2 order to the second respondent. If the petitioner is desirous to file such a representation he may do so within 10 days from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. In case such a representation is received from the petitioner the second respondent shall consider the same and pass appropriate orders within a period of one month thereafter. It is made clear that this Court has not interfered with Ext.P2. Sd/- C.T.RAVIKUMAR Judge TKS
