JUDGMENT
Radhakrishnan, J
Writ petition was preferred seeking a writ of
certiorari to quash Ext.P6 order. The said order is passed
by the Government on 17.7.2007 taking note of the
resolution No.10 dated 6.6.07 of District Panchayat,
Idukki and another letter dated 20.6.07 of the President,
Idukki District Panchayat. In such circumstances,
Government effected the transfer and posting of
Sri.P.K.Jacob as Executive Engineer, District Panchayat,
Wayanad.
2. Petitioner preferred Ext.P9 representation for
conciliation of the order of transfer and also made a
request to allow him to continue in Idukki Panchayat.
Alternatively he also prayed for repatriation to his parent
department. This Court sitting in this jurisdiction is not
justified in interfering with Ext.P6 transfer order.
However, we are inclined to dispose of this appeal with a
direction to consider and dispose of Ext.P9 representation
within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a
copy of this judgment.
