In various cases of this nature, this Court has expressed the view that if for any reason the application is not sustainable, instead of adjourning proceeding, the RTA should pass final orders. Taking into account the above, this writ petition is also disposed of directing that the RTA shall pass final orders on the application made by the petitioner for the renewal of permit. This shall be done as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within three months of production of copy of this judgment. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE scm
