M.R SREELATHA THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 02/06/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: V.GIRI,J. ------------------------- W.P ( C) No14154 of 2009 -------------------------- Dated this the 2nd June,2009 J U D G M E N T The writ petition is posted for orders today and I heard learned Government Pleader also. 2. Petitioner claims to be the owner of a stage carriage operating on the route Mambram-Vatakara. A vacancy arose when the petitioner was not operating and a temporary permit was issued to the 2nd respondent. Later, the application for permit was rejected. But an appeal filed before the State Transport Appellate Tribunal was disposed of at the admission stage directing the permit to be granted. Petitioner is aggrieved by Exhibit- P2 and hence the writ petition. 3. I do not find any reason to interfere with Exhibit-P2 as the Tribunal has rightly held that oversaturation is not a ground for rejection of an application for regular permit. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed. (V.GIRI,JUDGE) ma 2 3
