IN THE HIGH COURT OF UTTARAKHAND AT NAINITAL Writ Petition (M/S) No.1756 of 2009. Ashish Kumar and another. … Petitioners. Vs. State of Uttarakhand and 4 others. … Respondents. Sri Gopal Narain, Advocate, learned counsel for the petitioners. Sri K.P.Upadhyay, learned Additional C.S.C. for respondents-State. Date October 22, 2009. P.C.: Hon’ble B.S.Verma, J. Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the record. By means of this writ petition, the petitioners have sought a writ in the nature of mandamus directing the respondents to consider all the applications for grant of permanent stage carriage permit in its meeting dated 23-10-2009 for all routes which are pending before State Transport Authority since 2005 to 2007. According to the petitioners, petitioner no. 1 applied for grant of stage carriage permit on the route Kashipur-Bujnor via Dhammpur Nahtor on 25-8-2005 and the petitioner no. 2 applied for grant of permanent stage carriage permit on the route Vikasnagar- Saharanpur in the year 2007. It is admitted to the learned counsel for the petitioners that dated 7-10-2009 issued by the State 2 Transport Authority, Uttarakhand, the routes for which applications for grant of the permit by the petitioners were made are not notified, therefore, applications for those routes are not to be considered in the meeting scheduled to be held on 23-10-2009. Having considered the arguments advanced by the learned counsel for the petitioners, I am of the view that at this stage, no direction can be issued. The writ petition is devoid of merit and liable to be dismissed. The writ petition is dismissed summarily. (B.S.Verma,J.) RCP 3
