SURENDRA MOHAN, J. ------------------------------------------------------------ W.P(C) NO:6219 OF 2010 ----------------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 9th March, 2010. JUDGMENT The petitioner submitted an application for the grant of a regular permit on the route Kusavoor-Kallingal, which is a short route 30 kms in length. The route falls entirely within the jurisdiction of the respondent. According to the petitioner the route passes through interior areas which are ill-served with no sufficient service to the requirement of the public. The petitioner has also submitted an application suggesting vacant timings but, no orders have been passed by the respondent so far. The petitioner therefore seeks directions for passing orders on the application without further delay. 2. The learned Govt. Pleader Mr. K.C.Santhosh Kumar on instructions submits that since the issue related to grant of regular permits a report had to be called for from the Field Officer. It is submitted that the formalities have been completed and therefore the matter would be placed before the next meeting of the Regional Transport Authority for consideration. 3. In the above circumstances this writ petition is disposed of directing the Secretary, Regional Transport Authority to place the WPC 6219/2010 2 application for regular permit submitted by the petitioner before the next meeting of the Regional Transport Authority for consideration in accordance with law.
