THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No. 23460 of 2007 Dated: 06.11.2007 Between: Ch. Venkata Umamaheswara Rao … Petitioner AND Secretary, Regional Transport Authority, Guntur. … Respondent Counsel for the petitioner : Sri P. Rajagopalachary Counsel for the respondent : Assistant Government Pleader for Transport THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No. 23460 of 2007 ORDER:- This writ petition is filed for a writ of mandamus to direct the respondent to accept the valid records for issuance of permit in pursuance of order dated 29.01.2005 passed by the Regional Transport Authority, Guntur (for short, ‘the RTA’). The petitioner filed an application before the RTA for grant of a pucca stage carriage permit on the route RTC bus stand (Guntur) to Gorantla. The said application was considered by the RTA and allowed by directing grant of permit vide its order dated 29.01.2005. The petitioner was granted four months time for production of records for granting a permit. The said time expired by 27.11.2005. In his affidavit filed in support of the writ petition, the petitioner pleaded that due to his domestic problems he could not raise money for purchase of the vehicle immediately and that with great difficulty he had now purchased the vehicle and made it ready to be plied. The grievance of the petitioner is that because of the expiry of the time limit of four months for producing the valid documents, the respondent is not issuing the permit. Heard Sri P. Rajagopalachary, learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Transport. Since in similar circumstances this Court has disposed of similar writ petitions, namely, Writ Petition No.25695 of 2005 dated 02.12.2005, to cite as an instance, by extending time for production of records which fact is not disputed by the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Transport, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition too in similar manner. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of by granting six weeks’ time to the petitioner to enable him to produce the relevant documents and comply with all the necessary conditions for grant of stage carriage permit in his favour. As a sequel to disposal of the writ petition, WPMP.No.30581 of 2007 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. _____________________________ C.V.
