The petitioner is a registered association of petroleum dealers of

Kottayam and Idukki districts. They are now aggrieved by the alleged

oral direction issued by the 1st respondent directing the dealers to avail

of the service of the trucks offered by the transporting contractors for

transporting petroleum products from the 1st respondent to the retail

outlets of the petroleum dealers, instead of using own trucks of the

dealers. In respect thereof, the petitioner has filed Ext.P3

representation before the 2nd respondent. The petitioner seeks a

direction to the 2nd respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P3

expeditiously.

2. I have heard the learned standing counsel appearing for

the respondents also.

3. Having heard both sides, I dispose of this writ petition with

a direction to the 2nd respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P3

as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within one month from the

date of receipt of a certified copy of this judgment after affording an

opportunity fo being heard to the petitioner .
