GOVT.PLEADER SRI.P.N.SANTHOSH THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 06/04/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ================ W.P.(C) NO. 11236 OF 2009 (Y) ===================== Dated this the 6th day of April, 2009 J U D G M E N T Petitioner's grievance is regarding Ext.P3, whereby the application made by the petitioner for a regular permit was returned by the 1st respondent requiring the petitioner to submit a modified proposal. Counsel rightly contends that if for some reason, the permit cannot be granted, the course open to the RTA was to pass final orders in the matter rather than to return the application as done in Ext.P3. I am inclined to agree. 2. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of quashing Ext.P3 and directing that the 1st respondent shall consider the application made by the petitioner and pass final orders thereon. This shall be done, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within 8 weeks of production of a copy of this judgment. Writ petition is disposed of as above. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
