He applied for a variation of the permit by extending the service to Kuthampally. The Regional Transport Authority, Thrissur that met on 15.11.2010 resolved to grant the variation subject to settlement of timings. The grievance voiced by the petitioner is that though one year has passed thereafter, the respondent has not settled the time schedule and the variation has not been endorsed on the original of the permit. In this writ petition, the petitioner seeks a direction to the respondent to settle the timings and to endorse the variation on the original of the permit within a time limit to be fixed by this Court. 2. Sri.G.Gopakumar, the learned Government Pleader appearing for the respondent submitted on instructions that as Ext.P1 order has attained finality and nearly one year has passed thereafter, the respondent will settle the timings and make the necessary endorsements on the original of the permit expeditiously. WPC No.27716/2011 2 In the light of the said submission and having regard to the fact that nearly one year has passed after Ex.P1 order was passed by the Regional Transport Authority, Thrissur, I dispose of the writ petition with a direction to the respondent to settle the timings and endorse the variation on the original of the permit expeditiously and in any event within one month from the date on which the petitioner produces a certified copy of this judgment before him.
