The vehicle originally belonged to the petitioner's husband who is no more. As the legal heir of her husband, she has succeeded to the possession of the vehicle. She had applied for transfer of the permit to her name, which according to the counsel for the petitioner has been granted a few days back. The grant has also been endorsed on the permit. The petitioner has submitted Ext.P1 request for the revision of her own timings. According to the petitioner, subsequent to the settlement of her timings, a number of new services have been introduced on the route thereby reducing the time gap with which she had been operating her services. In view of the above change of circumstances, the petitioner has sought for the revision of her own timings in a suitable manner. She complains that no orders have wpc No.16321/2010 2 been passed on her application, till date. Therefore, she seeks appropriate directions for an early disposal of her application. The learned Senior Government Pleader has no objection to such directions being issued. In the above circumstances, this Writ Petition is disposed of directing the respondent to consider the application submitted by the petitioner for the revision of her own timings, evidenced herein by Ext.P1 in accordance with law and to pass appropriate orders thereon as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment, after hearing the petitioner also.
