The R.T.A., by Ext.P2, adjourned the application for enquiry regarding opening of a new bridge and also asked the petitioner to submit fresh timings at the speed of 2.5 mts./km. The bridge was there long before and in fact another permit was granted on the same route subsequently without any objections regarding the bridge. The petitioner, therefore, seeks a direction to the RTA to consider and pass orders on the petitioner's application expeditiously. 2. The learned Government Pleader submits that the matter would be placed before the next meeting of the RTA and a decision taken thereon. 3. After hearing both sides, I dispose of this writ petition w.p.c.18391/07 2 with a direction to the 1st respondent to pass orders on the application for variation of regular permit submitted by the petitioner within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
