Petitioner states that he submitted an application to the respondent for renewal of permit on 28.08.2006, but the respondent rejected the same by an order dated 05.09.2006. Aggrieved by the same, he filed an appeal, being A.P.No.146 of 2006, before the State Transport Appellate Tribunal, Hyderabad, which was allowed on 15.02.2007, and the respondent was directed to renew the permit on production of valid documents, within one month from the date of receipt of the said order. However, he could not produce the documents within the said time and therefore, filed M.P.No.21 of 2007 before the Tribunal seeking further extension of time. The Tribunal, by an order dated 28.03.2007, extended the time for further three months. Petitioner further states that he could not produce the records within the time granted by the Tribunal, and therefore, requested the respondent for further extension of time, but the respondent refused to grant further time. Hence, he filed this writ petition, seeking further extension of time. The petitioner has stated the circumstances that disabled him from producing the vehicle and the relevant documents. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, and the learned Government Pleader for Transport. The petitioner was not only accorded a period of thirty days, for production of the records in relation to the permit granted in his favour, but also was granted extension by three months. The petitioner ought to have complied with the same, otherwise, the very purpose of granting permit would be defeated, and the travelling public would be put to inconvenience.
