The Shakti Coop Transport Society Limited, Malout .....Petitioner versus State Transport Commissioner, Punjab .....Respondent CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.P.S.Bawa, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr.H.S.Brar, Additional AG, Punjab. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) Notice of motion. Mr.H.S.Brar, learned Additional Advocate General, Punjab, accepts notice on behalf of the respondent. In view of the nature of order which I propose to pass there is no need to seek any counter-reply from the respondent at this stage. The petitioner seeks a mandamus to direct the respondent to consider and decide its application dated 28.3.2006 (Annexure P-1) whereby regular Stage Carriage Permit on Abohar-Sangria via Sardarpura, Seeto Guno, Santpura, Bhagatpura route (one permit with one return trip), has been sought. It is averred that the above-stated application is pending C.W.P.No .15172 of 2010 2 from last more than four years as no decision has been taken so far. Having heard learned counsel for the parties and considering the nature of relief sought in this writ petition, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the same with a direction to the respondent to take an appropriate decision on the afore-stated application of the petitioner as per the Policy/Scheme, within a period of three months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. Ordered accordingly. Dasti. August 25, 2010 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
