                     W.P.(C)No.21163 OF 2007
                   --------------------------------------------
                Dated this the 10th day of July, 2007

                               JUDGMENT

Petitioner who is working as Assistant Registrar in the

Co-operation Department takes exception to the order of his

transfer from Thiruvananthapuram to Mannarkkad. He has

raised several contentions in support of his plea for quashing

the order which according to him, is totally illegal and

vitiated. One specific contention is that he being a member

belonging to the Scheduled Caste community, he has to be

allowed to continue at least for five years in

Thiruvananthapuram.

2. Anyhow, I do not propose to deal with any of the

contentions raised by the petitioner at this stage, in view of

the limited prayer made by the learned counsel for the

petitioner at the Bar. He submits that petitioner will be

satisfied, if a direction is issued to respondent no.1 to take a

decision on Ext.P3 representation in which petitioner is stated

to have highlighted all his grievances and the relevant aspects

of the issue. Learned Government Pleader submits that if

Ext.P3 has been preferred, an appropriate decision thereon

will be taken without any delay.

3. In the above facts and circumstances, writ petition is

disposed of with a direction to respondent no.1 to consider

and pass orders on Ext.P3 strictly on its merit and in

accordance with law as expeditiously as possible, at any rate,

within one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this

judgment. Needless to mention that petitioner shall be

afforded sufficient opportunity to be heard before any

decision is taken in the matter. Petitioner shall produce a

copy of the writ petition along with a certified copy of the

judgment before respondent no.1 for compliance.

Writ petition is disposed of as above.
