Counsel for the Petitioner:SMT.M.VINOBHA DEVI Counsel for the Respondent Nos.1 & 2: GP FOR TRANSPORT The Court at the admission stage made the following : ORDER: This writ petition is filed seeking a writ of mandamus directing the first respondent to issue All India Tourist Permit to the petitioner on production of valid records and documents within a period of three months from today. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Transport. The State Transport Appellate Tribunal, Andhra Pradesh, Hyderabad, by its order, dated 21-5-2003 in A.P.No.104 of 2004, directed the first respondent herein to issue All India Tourist Permit to the petitioner herein within four months from the date of receipt of a copy of that order on production of valid records and documents as required under the Motor Vehicles Act and Rules. As the copy of the said order has not been supplied to the petitioner, he is not able to produce the valid records and documents in time. No third party rights are intervened. Therefore, I feel it appropriate to direct the first respondent to issue All India Tourist Permit to the petitioner in pursuance of the order dated 21-5-2003 passed in A.P.No.104 of 2003 by the State Transport Appellate Tribunal, Andhra Pradesh, Hyderabad on production of valid records and documents. However, it is made clear that the petitioner shall produce the valid records and documents before the first respondent within two months from the date of this order, failing which, the petitioner is not entitled for the All India Tourist Permit. With the above direction, the Writ Petition is disposed of. No costs. ____________ 12-04-2005 To 1 The Chair-person, State Transport Authority, Andhra Pradesh, Hyderabad, 2 The Presiding Officer, State Transport Appellate Tribunal, Andhra Pradesh, Hyderabad. 3.
