SANTHOSH KUMAR THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 28/01/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: Kss K.SURENDRA MOHAN, J ........................................... WP(C).NO. 2778 OF 2010 ............................................ DATED THIS THE 28TH DAY OF JANUARY, 2010 JUDGMENT The petitioner is the holder of a regular permit issued to him on 24.5.2005 with respect to his vehicle bearing registration No.KL-5/V 3851. The permit is valid till 24.8.2010. According to the petitioner, subsequent to the settlement of his timing, many other services have started operation on the route in question. Thereby, the time gap available to the petitioner has got reduced. KSRTC services have also been introduced in the sector. Consequently, the petitioner is not able to operate his service profitably. In the above circumstances, the petitioner has submitted Ext.P1 request for the revision of his timing. Though Ext.P1 was submitted on 16.1.2009, the petitioner complains that no action has been taken on Ext.P1 so far. Therefore, he prays for appropriate directions to consider Ext.P1 and to pass orders thereon, on an early date. 2. This writ petition is accordingly disposed of directing the respondent to consider Ext.P1 request for revision of timing submitted Wpc 2778/10 2 by the petitioner, in accordance with law and to pass appropriate orders thereon as expeditiously as possible and at any rate, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The respondent shall also hear all other persons who are likely to be affected by the change in the timings requested for by the petitioner. K.SURENDRA MOHAN, JUDGE lgk
