Timing was alloted as per Ext.P1. Second respondent , a regular permit holder operates on the route Chellanam-Kaloor with stage carriage KL-04/N 1381. According to the petitioner, there is an anomaly in the timings allotted to the 2nd respondent. This is strongly refuted by the 2nd respondent who submits that the timings of the 2nd respondent are consistent with the variation granted to the 2nd respondent on 24.5.2000 which is endorsed in the permit. This writ petition has been filed seeking a direction to the 1st respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P3 which allegedly contains a prayer for rectification of the mistake committed by the 1st respondent in mentioning the passing time and arrival time of the service operated by the 2nd respondent. W.P ( C) No. 898 of 2009 2 2. Second respondent has filed a counter affidavit pointing out the absence of any anomaly in the timings allotted to the 2nd respondent. 3. Having heard counsel on both sides, the writ petition is disposed of directing the 1st respondent to consider Ext.P3, after notice to the 2nd respondent also and pass an order thereon, within three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. I make it clear that in the course of passing an order on Ext.P3, the 1st respondent shall not revise the timings of the 2nd respondent.
