JUDGMENT
The petitioner entered in the service as 'Santhi Lavanam' with effect from 20.11.1996. According to the petitioner, he has worked at various stations and currently working as Karakkal Koottummel Devaswom. The petitioner submits that he worked in the present station for more than three years and therefore, he submits that he is entitled for transfer in accordance with the guidelines prescribed by the transfer. However, this was not considered even though there arose a vacancy at 'Hanuman Nada Melsanthi' in Kaviyoor Devaswom.. Therefore, the petitioner has approached the second respondent by Ext.P3.
In view of the above, there shall be a direction to the second respondent to consider Ext.P3 after hearing the
W.P.(C) No.2547 of 2015 2 petitioner, Devaswom Board and the 4th respondent within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
The writ petition is disposed of as above.
