K.C.SANTHOSH KUMAR THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 09/06/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: K.SURENDRA MOHAN, J. --------------------------- W.P.(C) No. 17811 OF 2010 -------------------------- Dated this the 9th day of June, 2010 J U D G M E N T The petitioner is conducting services on the route Kayalode- Vadakara with a stage carriage vehicle bearing registration No.KL- 18-C-7227 on the strength of a regular permit. The petitioner's services are being conducted on the basis of timings that were settled years back. According to the petitioner, due to the introduction of new services by the Kerala State Road Transport Corporation (hereinafter referred to as 'the KSRTC' for short) with identical timings as the petitioner's service, it has become very difficult for the petitioner to conduct his service without clashes with the other services. It has also hampered the operation of the petitioner's services in a smooth manner. The petitioner has therefore submitted Ext.P3 request for the revision of his timings in a suitable manner. He complains that no orders have been passed thereon till date. The learned Senior Government Pleader has no objection to a direction being issued for expediting a decision on Ext.P2. In the above circumstances, this writ petition is disposed of WPC No.17811/2010 2 directing the respondent to consider the request of the petitioner contained in Ext.P3 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.
