The Hon’ble Sri Justice R.Subhash Reddy Writ Petition No.645 of 2010 Order: Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and learned Government Pleader for Transport appearing for the respondents-Transport Department. In this Writ Petition, the petitioner seeks direction to the second respondent-Deputy Transport Commissioner, Chittoor, to dispose of his application, dated 04-10-2008, seeking grant of permit for town service route from ‘Thamballapalli to B.Kothakota’. In the affidavit, filed in support of the Writ Petition, it is stated that pursuant to filing of the abovesaid application, the second respondent called for report from the Motor Vehicles Inspector, Madanapalli. It is the grievance of the petitioner though the report has been received, his application has not yet been disposed of by the second respondent. On instructions, it is submitted by the learned Government Pleader for Transport appearing for the respondents that the matter is under consideration. Inasmuch as the petitioner’s application was filed as early as on 04-10-2008 and the same is pending till date, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this Writ Petition directing the second respondent to consider the same on its own merits and pass appropriate orders thereon, in accordance with the provisions of the Motor Vehicles Act and the schemes notified thereunder, as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Subject to the above directions, the Writ Petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. _________________ R.Subhash Reddy, J Dated 28th January, 2010 Note: Furnish CC in one week.
