WP(C).NO. 8353 OF 2010 ............................................ DATED THIS THE 15TH DAY OF MARCH, 2010 JUDGMENT The petitioner is a Stage Carriage operator conducting services with a vehicle bearing registration No. KL-8/T 4514, on the route Kuttippuram-Kuttippuram Circular on the strength of a regular permit, which is valid till 31.3.2010. The petitioner is operating his services on the basis of timings that were settled on 11.7.2002. During the past eight years, due to the introduction of a number of new services, the time gap with which the petitioner was operating his services has been reduced substantially. Consequently, there occurs clashes with the timings of other operators. Therefore, the petitioner has submitted a request for making suitable variation in his timings to ensure the smooth conduct of his services. His complaint is that no orders have been passed on his request till date. 2. The learned Government Pleader, on instructions, submits that orders would be passed without much delay. 3. In the above circumstances, this writ petition is disposed of Wpc 8353/2010 2 directing the respondent to consider the request of the petitioner for variation of his own timings, evidenced herein by Ext.P1, in accordance with law, and to pass appropriate orders thereon, as expeditiously as possible, and at any rate, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
