BY ADVOCATE MR.I.DINESH MENON RESPONDENT(S): -------------------------- THE SECRETARY, REGIONAL TRANSPORT AUTHORITY, THRISSUR. GOVERNMENT PLEADER SMT. SUDHADEVI THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 27/01/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: Kss ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ----------------------------- W.P.(C) No. 35478 of 2008 -------------------------------------- Dated this the 27th day of January, 2009 JUDGMENT Petitioner is the registered owner of the vehicle bearing registration no. KL-10D 2707. According to the petitioner, by proceedings dated 4/10/2007, though the permit has been renewed, proceedings have not been issued so far. It is also his complaint that though by Exhibit P3, variation of the permit requested for was allowed subject to settlement of timings, timings have not been settled so far. It is with these complaints, this writ petition is filed with a prayer to direct to the respondent to expedite the proceedings. If as a matter of fact, permit has been renewed as early as on 4/10/2007, there is no reason why it should not have been issued despite lapse of almost two years. Taking into account the variation of the permit that allowed as per Exhibit P3 subject to settlement of timings, it is ordered that the respondent shall settle the timings in pursuance to Exhibit P3 and issue varied permit subject to the petitioner complying with all the statutory requirements.
