In the result, writ petition is disposed of declaring that the directions issued in Ext.P5 are applicable to the students of the petitioners' Institution as well. Learned counsel for the KSRTC Mr.Johnson submits that Ext.P5 has been taken up before the Supreme Court in a Special Leave Petition. Obviously if the Supreme Court interferes with Ext.P5 judgment, then the benefit given to the students of the petitioners' Institutions will also be suitably governed by the directions which the Supreme Court may issue in this regard.
