The petitioner has stated the circumstances that disabled him from producing the relevant documents. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, and the learned Government Pleader for Transport. The petitioner was not only accorded the statutory period of four months, for production of the records in relation to the renewal of permit granted in his favour, but also was granted extension of equal length of time. The petitioner ought to have complied with the same, otherwise, the very purpose of granting permit would be defeated, and the travelling public would be put to inconvenience.
