                            W.P(C).No.457 of 2009

                        ==================

                  Dated this the 26th day of March, 2009

                                J U D G M E N T

The petitioners’ grievance is that respondents 1 and 3 are not

taking appropriate steps to prevent parking of goods autorickshaws

and other vehicles in front of the petitioners’ shops. After hearing, I

passed the following interim order on 20.3.2009.

“Learned counsel for the Municipality submits that even now,
despite Ext.R3(a) request, the Sub Inspector of police, East Police
Station, Kottayam, has not given any assistance to enforce the
prohibition of parking in front of the petitioners’ shops. In the above
circumstances, there would be a direction to the 3rd respondent to see
that immediate appropriate action is taken for removing parking of
vehicles in front of the shops as requested for in Ext.R3(a).”

2. Now the petitioners submit that although at present illegal

parking has been removed, respondents 1 and 3 may be directed to

see that in future also no such parking takes place.

3. I have heard the parties.

4. In the facts and circumstances of the case, this writ

petition is disposed of in terms of the interim order dated 20.3.2009

and directing respondents 1 and 3 to see that such parking is removed

as soon as the same comes to or brought to their notice.
