IN THE HIGH COURT OF KERALA AT ERNAKULAM PRESENT : THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE S.SIRI JAGAN THURSDAY, THE 17TH DECEMBER 2009 / 26TH AGRAHAYANA 1931 WP(C).No. 36469 of 2009(C) -------------------------- PETITIONER(S): --------------- K.M.BALAN, KUYYAL MEETHAL HOUSE, P.O.PONMERI, VADAKARA. BY ADV. SRI.I.DINESH MENON RESPONDENT(S): --------------- THE SECRETARY, REGIONAL TRANSPORT AUTHORITY, VADAKARA. SR.GOVT. PLEADER K.C.SANTHOSH KUMAR THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 17/12/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S.SIRI JAGAN, J. ================== W.P.(C).No. 36469 of 2009 ================== Dated this the 17th day of December, 2009 J U D G M E N T The petitioner is a stage carriage operator. He seeks revision of his own timings. For the same he has filed Ext.P1 request before the respondent. His grievance is that Ext.P1 is not being considered by the respondent. On a perusal of Ext.P1, I find that the petitioner has not even cared to state that there is any change of circumstances warranting revision of timings. His only contention is that if the present timings are continued, it would cause loss to him. That is not a ground mentioned in the Motor Vehicles Act for revision of timings. If he was aggrieved by the original timings on the ground mentioned in Ext.P1, his remedy was to challenge the original timings in a revision before the State Transport Appellate Tribunal, which he has not done. Therefore, I do not find any merit in this writ petition and accordingly, the same is dismissed. Sd/- sdk+ S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE ///True copy/// P.A. to Judge 2
