RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, J. --------------------------------------- W.P.(C) No.21461 OF 2010 --------------------------------------- Dated this the 10th day of August, 2010. J U D G M E N T This writ petition is filed by the petitioners aggrieved by the action taken by the respondents to delete the register number of one of the two vehicles mentioned in the toddy transport permits of the petitioners. Exhibits P1 to P11 are the permits issued to the petitioners. 2. This Court had passed an interim order on 09.07.2010. It is brought to my notice that the restriction introduced which led to the filing of the writ petition has been withdrawn as per order No.XA2.14439/01 dated 22.07.2010. Similar writ petitions have been disposed of by this Court recording the same as per the judgment in W.P.(C) No.15513/2010 and connected cases. The writ petitions were allowed and it was declared that the petitioners will be governed by the transport permits already issued. Since the position is the same herein, this writ petition is W.P.(C) No.21461/2010 2 allowed. The matter will be governed by the conditions in the order dated 22.07.2010 and the petitioners will be governed by the transport permits already issued. T.R. RAMACHANDRAN NAIR JUDGE smp
