According to the petitioner, due to the introduction of new services on the route as well as introduction of services by the Kerala State Road Transport Corporation (hereinafter referred to as 'the KSRTC' for short) with identical timings as the petitioner's service, the operation of the service of the petitioner in a smooth and efficient manner is hampered. Therefore, the petitioner has been repeatedly making the requests for a suitable revision of his timings. Though Exts.P2 and P4 have been submitted by the petitioner, his complaint is that no orders have been passed thereon till date. The learned Senior Government Pleader has no objection to the matter being considered expeditiously. In the above circumstances, this writ petition is disposed of directing the respondents to consider the request of the petitioner WPC No.17832/2010 2 for the revision of his timings as per his applications, evidenced herein by Exts.P2 and P4, in accordance with law and to pass appropriate orders thereon, as expeditiously as possible and at any rate, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
