IN THE HIGH COURT OF KERALA AT ERNAKULAM PRESENT : THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ANTONY DOMINIC TUESDAY, THE 2ND SEPTEMBER 2008 / 11TH BHADRA 1930 WP(C).No. 26342 of 2008(J) -------------------------- PETITIONER: ------------ K.P.

THE SECRETARY, REGIONAL TRANSPORT AUTHORITY, KOTTAYAM. 3. THE D.T.O. KSRTC, KOTTAYAM. BY SC SRI. K. PRABHAKARAN THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 02/09/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J ----------------------------------------------------------- W.P.(C).No.26342/2008 ----------------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 2nd day of September, 2008 JUDGMENT What is actually sought for by the petitioner is implementation of Ext.P1. 2. By this judgment, the appeal filed by the petitioner before the STAT was allowed and the RTA was directed to reconsider the application of the petitioner for a regular permit, in case the petitioner files a modified proposal avoiding the objectionable overlapping on the notified route, within a period of one month from the date of the judgment. The date of the judgment being 29.2.2008, the petitioner submits that Ext.P2 modified proposal was submitted on 17.3.2008. According to the petitioner though this modified proposal has been made, the RTA has not so far considered Ext.P2 and pass orders thereon. It is at this stage the writ 2 petition has been filed. 3. In the background as stated above, I have no reason to deny the prayer made by the petitioner for directing the first respondent to take up, consider and pass orders on Ext.P2, if the same is pending. Therefore the writ petition is disposed of directing that the first respondent shall take up, consider and pass orders on Ext.P2 as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within 8 weeks from the date of production of a copy of the judgment. This shall be done with notice to the affected parties. ANTONY DOMINIC JUDGE vi. 3
