**** MAHABIR SINGH SINDHU, J.

Present writ petition has been filed under Article 226 of the Constitution, inter alia, for quashing the impugned order dated 21.11.2022 (P-6) passed by respondent No. 2, whereby petitioner was transferred from Civil Hospital, Abohar (Fazilka) to Ferozepur. At the outset, learned counsel on instructions from petitioner submits that instead of pressing the present petition on merits, his client would be satisfied in case the representation dated 26.11.2022 (P-7) is decided expeditiously.

Notice of motion to the aforesaid limited extent. On asking of the Court, Ms. Lavanya Paul, Deputy Advocate General, Punjab, accepts notice on behalf of the respondent(s)-State and raises no objection against the innocuous prayer of the petitioner. In view of the above, but without expressing any opinion on merits of the claim of the petitioner, this writ petition is disposed off with direction to the competent authority to consider and decide the representation dated 26.11.2022 sympathetically, within two (02) weeks DINESH KUMAR 2022.12.01 15:03 I attest to the accuracy and authenticity of this document from receipt of certified copy of this order.

CWP No. 27401 of 2022 (O&M) -2Needless to say that in case there is a failure on the part of competent authority, petitioner would be at liberty to move an appropriate application for revival of this writ petition. November 30, 2022 ( MAHABIR SINGH SINDHU ) 'dk kamra'
