SURENDRA MOHAN, J. ------------------------------------------------------------ W.P(C) NO:17570 OF 2010 U ----------------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 8th June, 2010. JUDGMENT The petitioner is a stage carriage operator conducting services on the route Kananchery-Tirur touching Alloor with stage carriage bearing registration NO: KL-11/N 4982. According to the petitioner, the timings in respect of certain other operators who are conducting services on the route have been altered leading to clashes in the operation of his services. According to the petitioner, if slight changes are made in his own timings, it would be possible to conduct his services in a much more efficient and smooth manner which would benefit the travelling public also. Therefore, the petitioner has submitted Ext.P1 request for the revision of his own timings. He complains that no orders have been passed on Ext.P1 till date. 2. The learned senior Govt. Pleader points out that Ext.P1 is dated 10/5/2010 and the petitioner has rushed to this Court with this writ petition though not even a month has elapsed. However, he has no objection to a direction being issued to the respondent to consider the application of the petitioner within a reasonable time. WPC 17570/2010 2 3. In the above circumstances this writ petition is disposed of directing the respondent to consider the request of the petitioner for the revision of his own timings, evidenced herein by Ext.P1 in accordance with law and to pass appropriate orders thereon as expeditiously as possible at any rate within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
