Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgement? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? PRESENT: Mr. H. S. Sawhney, Sr.Advocate with Mr. Navnish Kumar, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. S. S. Patter, DAG, Haryana, for the State. **** RANJIT SINGH, J. The petitioner has approached this Court through the present writ petition against order, Annexure P-5, where its request for route permit from Narwana to Khadwal with extension from Khadwal to Tohana was rejected on the ground that only two permits could be granted, which have already been granted on this route. The appeal filed by the petitioner was also dismissed on this ground. This was stated to be under the policy, which was then existing. The CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO.18400 OF 2009 :{ 2 }: petitioner had come to challenge the vires of this policy also. During the pendency of the writ petition, the State Government has come up with the revised policy. Learned senior counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that now three permits can be granted on this route. Accordingly, he only makes a prayer that his claim now be considered in the light of the fact that now three permits can be granted on the said route and the reasons for which the earlier request was declined, would no more remain in existence. The State counsel does not have any objection, if the present writ petition is disposed of with a direction to respondent No.3 to consider the claim of the petitioner for grant of route permit in terms of new policy and by taking into account the fact that now three permits on this route can be granted. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of with a direction to respondent No.3 to consider the claim of the petitioner for grant of route permit under the new policy. It would be appropriate if the decision is taken within some reasonable time preferably within a period of three months. May 12,2011 (RANJIT SINGH ) khurmi JUDGE
