It is submitted that the aforesaid S.L.P. has no connection with the route applied for by the petitioner. Therefore, the pendency of the S.L.P. can be no justification for keeping the application pending. 2. As a matter of fact if the S.L.P. has no connection, as pointed out by the learned counsel for the petitioner, I see no justification in adjourning the renewal application of the petitioner. 3. Therefore, I direct the 1st respondent to consider the renewal application of the petitioner and pass final orders thereon as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within six weeks from the date of production of a copy of this judgment. The petitioner shall also produce a copy of the writ petition before the 1st respondent. Antony Dominic, Judge. mn. -2-
