Permit was issued on 14.6.2006 and the timing was settled on 11.6.2007. Revision filed before the State Transport Appellate Tribunal was disposed of and pursuant to that timings were settled as per Exhibit P1. Petitioner submits that a vacancy has arisen on account of surrender of permit on the route Palakkad-Thiruvilwamala. Petitioner aspires for said route. Request in this regard has been made under Exhibit P2. Obviously, petitioner would have no exclusive right as such for the vacancy on the route. But the application of revision of timings as per Exhibit P2 will have to be considered in a timing conference. Having heard the learned Government Pleader also, the writ petition is disposed of directing the respondent to consider the request made in Exhibit P2 and if it is found W.P ( C) No.31353 of 2008 2 sustainable, a timing conference shall be convened, objections taken up and decision taken thereon, within three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
