IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C.W.P. No. 5886 of 2010. [O&M] Date of Decision: 10th August 2010. The Gharaunda East Cooperative Transport Society Limited, Gharaunda, District Karnal Petitioner through Mr. H.S.Sawhney, Sr. Advocate with Mr. Vikas Singh, Advocate. Versus Secretary, Regional Transport Authority, Karnal & Ors. Respondents through Mr. R.D.Sharma, DAG, Haryana. CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SURYA KANT. 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? SURYA KANT, J. [ORAL] The petitioner seeks quashing of the order dated 23.01.2010 whereby its application for renewal of the route-permit has been allowed but its extended route as allotted earlier, has been modified allegedly to its dis-advantage. From the original record produced by the first respondent, it is apparent that in his application dated 27.1.2010, the President of the petitioner Society did not seek any alteration in the extended route permit granted from Sitamai to Dhand. However, while renewing the petitioner's permit, respondent No. 1 has ordered that “original route Karnal to Sitamai via Dabri, Kalampura, Kachhwa only extended up to 12.9.2014”. As a result thereto, the petitioner is left with no route permit from Sitamai to Dhand. The afore-stated order has been passed by the first respondent without giving any notice to the petitioner. It also appears that the first respondent is not the competent authority to pass such an order. The writ petition is accordingly allowed; the impugned order dated 23.01.2010 [Annexure P-2] passed by the first respondent is hereby set aside with a direction to the respondents to re-consider and pass appropriate orders on the petitioner's application dated 27.1.2010 strictly in accordance with law Scheme, within a period of two weeks from the date a certified copy of this order is received. Till then, the petitioner shall be permitted to ply its bus up to Dhand in terms of the earlier extended permit. Disposed of. Dasti. August 10, 2010. ( SURYA KANT ) dinesh JUDGE
