BY ADV. SRI.P.V.BABY SRI.R.KIRAN RESPONDENTS: ------------- 1. SECRETARY, REGIONAL TRANSPORT AUTHORITY, THIRUVANANTHAPURAM. 2. THE REGIONAL TRANSPORT AUTHORITY, THIRUVANANTHAPURAM, REPRESENTED BY ITS SECRETARY. BY GOVERNMENT PLEADER SRI I.V.PRAMOD THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 20/02/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ------------------------------------ W.P.(C) 5937 of 2008 ------------------------------------- Dated: February 20, 2008 JUDGMENT The prayer sought for in this writ petition is for directing the respondents to regularise the service of the petitioner operating in the route Nettayam - Thiruvallam. 2. Admittedly the petitioner is operating on the strength of a temporary permit and what is relied on to sustain the prayer is Ext.P2 judgment. As is evident from Ext.P2 itself, a direction in that case was issued treating the said case as a special case. Therefore Ext.P2 cannot be a precedent. 3. Coming to the merits of the request made by the petitioner, there is no legal sanction for regularising the permit as sought for. Therefore I am not in a position to consider the prayer. Writ petition fails and is dismissed. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE mt/-
