RESPONDENT'S EXHIBITS: NIL. // TRUE COPY // P.S. TO JUDGE. knc/- P.R. RAMAN, J. ============= W.P.(C) NO. 28805 OF 2006 =================== DATED THIS, THE 8TH DAY OF JANUARY, 2007 J U D G M E N T Ext. P1 is a proceeding of the Regional Transport Authority, Thrissur, dated 16.8.2006 by which regular permit was granted to the petitioner for a period of five years to operate on the route Thrissur - North Bus stand - Varandarappilly via. Muncipal stand, Sakthan Market etc. In para 2 of the writ petition, it is averred that petitioner has already submitted the current records of the vehicle in question; but the permit as such is not issued. It is also his case that the delay in issuing the permit will adversely affect him, since once the permit is issued it will relate back to the date of application. In such circumstances, early issuance of the permit is necessary to avert lapse of time for running the bus for the complete period of five years. 2. Learned Government Pleader appearing on behalf of the respondents submitted that she has no specific instruction as to the steps taken pursuant to Ext.P1, in the matter of regular permit. She has however instructions regarding the temporary permit applied for on which petitioner is not seriously pressing for any relief. WP(C) 28805/06 :2: 3. In the circumstances, there will be a direction to the respondent to convene a timing conference and issue permit to the petitioner expeditiously, at any rate, within two months. The writ petition is disposed of as above. Petitioner shall produce a copy of this judgment before the respondent for information and compliance. P.R. RAMAN, JUDGE. knc/-
