PIL 66/2006 BEFORE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE D.BISWAS, CHIEF JUSTICE(ACTING) HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE B.D.AGARWAL Six eminent persons of Guwahati have filed this writ petition in the nat ure of PIL seeking appropriate direction from this Court to stop misuse of red l ights on the top of vehicles by unauthorised persons. We have heard Mr J Roy, learned counsel for the petitioners and Mrs. B G oyal, learned State counsel. During the pendency of this PIL, the police agency have taken effective steps. From the affidavit of the Senior Superintendent of Police dated 16.11.200 6 we find that a number of FIRs have been registered against many persons for us ing red lights unauthorisedly. From the list of FIRs, we find that the vehicles belong to senior officers of different departments. Hence, from this action it c an be inferred that the police agency is serious about enforcing the Motor Vehic les Act and Rules. The respondents are directed to implement the law relating to use of red lights in letter and spirit. The authority shall also ensure that the police c ases come to a logical end and in appropriate cases the owners and occupants of the vehicles who are found to have violated the provisions relating to red light should also be booked. With the aforesaid directions the PIL stands disposed of.
