b) That respondent be directed to decide the representation and pending case of inter district transfer Annexure P-2 & P-4 respectively."
.

2. Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the petitioner had joined as JBT Teacher in November, 2019. Petitioner had moved application/representation Annexure P-2 and P-4, respectively to respondent No.2, seeking her inter district transfer under 5% quota in terms of the policy Annexure P-1. Petitioner had also represented that her husband was working as Lecturer (Sanskrit) and was posted at GSSS Bharoli and as per the transfer policy, both husband and wife were liable to be posted at nearby stations. However, no action has been taken on the application/representation, moved by the petitioner so far by respondent No.2. At this stage, the petitioner would be satisfied in case respondent No.2 is directed to dispose of the application/ representation, moved by the petitioner, in a time bound manner.

3. Accordingly, without adverting to the merits of the case, this petition is disposed of with a direction to respondent No.2 to dispose of the application/representation Annexure P-2 and P-4, respectively, moved by the petitioner, expeditiously in accordance with law, preferably within three weeks from the receipt of copy of this order.
