GOVT.PLEADER SMT.SUDHADEVI THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 19/01/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ============== W.P.(C) NO. 1939 OF 2009 (E) ==================== Dated this the 19th day of January, 2009 J U D G M E N T The challenge in this writ petition is against Ext.P10. 2. Petitioner is the registered owner of the vehicle bearing Regn.NoKL57A-1545. The vehicle was seized on 23/9/2008 on the allegation that it was engaged in the unauthorised transportation of river sand. Order was passed against the petitioner. That was challenged before this Court in WP(C) No.30773/08 and the matter was directed to be reconsidered by judgment dated 17/11/2008. 3. It was accordingly that the matter was reconsidered by the District Collector, after affording the petitioner an opportunity to adduce his evidence. Ext.P10 order shows that the petitioner's contentions have all been adverted to. District Collector has even referred to and appreciated the evidence tendered by the Doctor. A reading of Ext.P10 does not give an impression that the order is perverse for any reason. Therefore, conclusions in Ext.P10 do not call for any interference in a proceedings under Article 226. 4. Learned counsel for the petitioner then complains about the value of the vehicle fixed. Learned Government Pleader assures that the WPC 1939/08 :2 : value has been fixed on the basis of the valuation done by the officers of the Motor Vehicles Department. In such circumstances, I am not persuaded to interfere. Writ petition fails and is dismissed. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
