THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 23/01/2007, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: K.K.DENESAN, J. ========================= WP(C).No.2569 OF 2007-E. ========================= Dated this the 23rd day of January, 2007. J U D G M E N T The petitioner feels aggrieved by Ext.P2 order dated 5- 1-2007 transferring him from the post of Executive Engineer, Electrical Division, Kozhikode to the office of the Chief Engineer, Thiruvananthapuram as Executive Engineer (PA to Superintending Engineer). The provocation for issuing an order in the nature of Ext.P2 in January, 2007 is not discernible on the face of that order. Second respondent is the substitute transferred in the place of the petitioner. 2. The petitioner has filed Ext.P3 representation before the Government to reconsider Ext.P2 and permit him to continue in the same station at least till the end of this academic year. 3. It is not necessary for this Court to repeat the facts and circumstances stated in Ext.P3 since I have no reason to assume that the Government will not look into Ext.P3. However, it is necessary in the interest of justice, that the 1st respondent shall consider Ext.P3, as expeditiously as possible, and take appropriate decision. WP(C).No.2569 of 2007. 2 The time for compliance is three weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this Judgment. The petitioner shall produce a copy of the Judgment together with a copy of the writ petition before the 1st respondent for compliance. The writ petition is disposed of as above.
