RAVIKUMAR, J. -------------------------------------------- W.P.(C). NO.36261 OF 2010 -------------------------------------------- Dated this the 6th day of December, 2010 JUDGMENT The petitioner was granted regular permit to conduct stage carriage service on the route Chelakkara-Vattully as per Ext.P1. The said grant was subject to settlement of timings. The grievance of the petitioner is that though the respondent is bound to give effect to the said order in Ext.P1 in terms of Rule 131 of the Kerala Motor Vehicle Rules, the respondent is not taking any action to settle the timings. 2. I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and also the learned Government Pleader. 3. Obviously, the application submitted by the petitioner for grant of regular permit was granted as per Ext.P1. True that the same was granted subject to settlement of timings. In terms of Rule 131 of the Kerala Motor Vehicle Rules, the respondent is bound to give effect to the said order. It can be given effect only by settling the timings in respect of the vehicle produced by the petitioner pursuant to Ext.P1. Therefore, this Writ Petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondent to settle the timings in respect of the vehicle in terms of Ext.P1 permit expeditiously, at W.P.(C) NO.36261/2010 2 any rate, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment with notice to the petitioner and also other interested operators on the route.
