P.N.RAVINDRAN, J. ------------------------------------------- WP (C) No. 28695 of 2011 -------------------------------------------- Dated this the 8th day of November, 2011 JUDGMENT The petitioner applied for a fresh stage carriage permit to operate a stage carriage service on the route Cherukunnuthara - Irikkur - Kannur Head Quarters Hospital. The Regional Transport Authority, Kannur that met on 28.6.2011 resolved to grant the permit subject to settlement of timings. This writ petition is filed contending that though upon receipt of Ext.P1 proceedings, the current records of stage carriage bearing registration No. KL.13/Q 6357, were produced, the respondent has not held the timing conference, settled the timings and issued the permit. In this writ petition the petitioner seeks a direction to the respondent to issue the permit in implementation of Exhibit P1 proceedings within a time limit to be fixed by this Court. 2. When this writ petition came up for hearing on 28.10.2011, the learned Government Pleader was directed to get instructions. When the writ petition came up for further hearing today, Sri.G.Gopakumar, the learned Government Pleader WP(C)No.28695 of 2011 -2- appearing for the respondent submitted on instructions that a timing conference is scheduled to be held on 1.12.2011 and that the time schedule of the petitioner's stage carriage will be settled in that meeting and the permit issued expeditiously thereafter. I accordingly dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the respondent to settle the timings and issue the permit in implementation of Exhibit P1 proceedings expeditiously and in any event within one month from the date on which the petitioner produces a certified copy of this judgment before him.
