SURENDRA MOHAN, J. ------------------------------------------------------------ W.P(C) NO: 6741 OF 2010 P ----------------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 3rd March, 2010. JUDGMENT The petitioner is a regular stage carriage operator. He is conducting services on the route Guruvayur-Thrissur with stage carriage vehicle No: KL-8/AG 4921 on the strength of a regular permit. His timings were settled on 19.5.2007. According to the petitioner due to the introduction of a number of new services on the route, operation of his service on the basis of the present timings is resulting in clashes with the services of other operators. Clashes also occur due to the departure time given to other services operating on the route. Therefore, the petitioner has sought for suitable variation in his timings. His complaint is that no orders have been passed on his request till date. The Govt. Pleader assures that his request would be considered and appropriate orders passed without further delay. 2. In view of the above this writ petition is disposed of directing the respondent to consider the request of the petitioner for variation of his own timings evidenced herein by Ext.P1 in accordance with law and to pass appropriate orders thereon as WPC 6741/2010 2 expeditiously as possible and at any rate within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
