THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GODA RAGHURAM AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N.RAVI SHANKAR WRIT PETITION No. 23767 of 2011. ORDER: (Per Goda Raghuram, J) Heard Sri.B.Chandrasekhar, the learned Counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for the respondents. The petitioner claims to be the owner of a Maxi Cab bearing registration No. TN 21-R 6786. On 9.8.2011, the vehicle was intercepted while it was proceeding from Vemuru to Kammakandriga and was found carrying 10 children below 10 years and without registration certificate, fitness certificate, pollution clearance certificate, driving licence, permit and proof of payment of tax. The vehicle was also found not fit for carrying school children. The vehicle was seized under Section 207 of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 and Section 8 of the A.P. Vehicles Taxation Act, 1963 (for short ’the 1963 Act’). These facts are recorded in the vehicle check report dt. 9.8.2011. Assailing the seizure and offering to deposit the admitted tax as a condition precedent for directing release of the vehicle, this writ petition is filed under Section 226 of the Constitution. Against the seizure affected under Section 8 of the 1963 Act, the petitioner is seen to have an appellate remedy under Section 12(c) of the 1963 Act. In the circumstances and having regard to the extent of violations found and recorded in the vehicle check report, and since the petitioner is having an appellate remedy, we are not inclined to exercise discretion under Article 226 of the Constitution to grant the relief. On the above premise, the writ petition is dismissed reserving liberty to the petitioner to pursue the appellate remedy. There shall be no order as to costs. ​________________________ GODA RAGHURAM, J _______________________ N.RAVI SHANKAR, J 25.8.2011. KRB.
