In fact, the said vacancy had occurred on account of the surrender of permit by the permit holder. Ext.P4 would reveal that the appeal preferred by the petitioner against the rejection of the fresh regular permit, was taken in appeal and the same was allowed by setting aside the impugned order. In fact, as per Ext.P4 the matter was remanded for fresh consideration by the first respondent therein. Pursuant to Ext.P4 the first respondent considered the matter and passed Ext.P5 order. As per Ext.P5 the respondent herein was directed to enquire and submit a report regarding the objection, if any, in the matter before the next RTA. It is for that purpose, the matter was adjourned. The grievance of the petitioner is with respect to the delay in the matter of finalization of proceedings despite Ext.P4 judgment. WPC.30475/2010 : 2 : Obviously, as per Ext.P5 the RTA had directed the respondent to enquire and submit a report in the matter. In the said circumstances, this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondent to conduct an enquiry and submit a report before the RTA expeditiously, so as to enable the RTA to consider it in the next meeting. The proceedings already initiated as per Ext.P5 shall be finalized expeditiously, at any rate, within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. Sd/- (C.T.
