J U D G M E N T This writ petition has been filed challenging Ext.P1 order of transfer. As per Ext.P1 the petitioner who is a Special Grade Secretary in the Local Self Government Department has been transferred from Thodiyoor Grama Panchayat in Kollam District to Kunnathoor Grama Panchayat in Kollam itself. Various contentions have been raised by the petitioner to challenge the said order of transfer. In fact, raising such contentions, the petitioner has already moved the first respondent. Since the petitioner has already preferred Ext.P2 representation before the first respondent I am inclined to dispose of this writ petition directing the first respondent to consider Ext.P2 representation and pass appropriate orders thereon. It is made clear that this Court has not made any observation as to the merits of the contentions raised by the WP(C).No.21453/2011-F. 2 petitioner. This shall be done expeditiously, at any rate within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. C.T. RAVIKUMAR, (Judge) Kvs/-
