BASANT BALAJI THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 01/12/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: Kss C.T.RAVIKUMAR, J. --------------------------------------- W.P(C)No.35162 of 2010 ---------------------------------------- Dated 1st December, 2010 JUDGMENT The petitioner who is the registered owner of a stage carriage bearing registration No.KL-10/L 2174 filed an application for grant of regular permit to operate on the route Edavannapara - Mukkam. Accordingly, regular permit was granted as per Ext.P1. Ext.P1 would reveal that it was granted subject to settlement of timings. The grievance of the petitioner is that despite the grant of regular permit as per Ext.P1 the respondent is not settling the timings in respect of the permit of the vehicle. According to the petitioner, for the purpose of settlement of timings a conference was convened, but it was adjourned. 2. I have heard the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner as also the learned Government Pleader. Ext.P1 would reveal that the application of the petitioner for grant of regular permit was granted subject to settlement of timings. When the Regional Transport Authority granted a regular permit subject to settlement of timings, the Secretary, RTA in terms of Rule 131 of the Kerala Motor Vehicles Rules, has to give effect to the said decision. Therefore, this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the WP(C).No.35162/2010 2 respondent to settle the timings in respect of state carriage with Registration No. KL-10/L 2174 expeditiously, at any rate within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment with notice to the petitioner as also to the other interested operators on the route.
