     THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M.SATYANARAYANA MURTHY

                   WRIT PETITION NO.2555 OF 2021

ORDER:

This petition is filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of

India, seeking the following relief:

"to issue a Writ, Order or direction more particularly one in the nature of Writ of mandamus, declaring the action of the 3rd respondent in transferring me by an order dated 19.01.2021 in RC No.SPL/2814/2020 from ZILLA PARISHAD HIGH SCHOOL, Indukurupeta Village, Devipatnam Mandal, Est Godavari District to ZILLA PARISHAD HIGH SCHOOL Donkarai, Y.Ramavaram Mandal as wholly illegal, arbitrary and consequently direct the 3rd respondent to consider my representation dated 23.01.2021 in the interest of natural justice and to pass such other order or orders".

2. Though the petitioner made several allegations against the

respondents, during the course of hearing learned counsel for the

petitioner Mr.D.V.Sasidhar, requested this Court without touching the

merits of the case, to issue a direction to the respondents to dispose

of the representation dated 23.01.2021 submitted by the petitioner.

3. Learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue appearing

for respondents readily agreed to dispose of the representation dated

23.01.2021 submitted by the petitioner, if any pending with the

respondent authorities.

4. In view of the submission of learned Assistant Government

Pleader for Revenue appearing for respondents, I need not decide the

truth or otherwise of the allegations made in the petition.

5. This Court is conscious that no such direction be issued in view

of the judgment of the Apex Court in The Government of India v.

P.Venkatesh1, wherein the Apex Court held that such orders may

make for a quick or easy disposal of cases in overburdened

adjudicatory institutions. But, they do not serve to the cause of

justice. As the learned counsel for the petitioner himself requested to

issue a direction to dispose of the representation dated 23.01.2021

submitted by the petitioner, I find no other alternative except to issue

such direction.

6. In the result, Writ Petition is disposed of, directing the

respondent authorities to dispose of representation dated 23.01.2021

submitted by the petitioner, in accordance with law, within a week

from today. No costs.

As a sequel, miscellaneous applications pending, if any, shall

also stand closed.
