                           J U D G M E N T

Delay in passing orders on Ext. P1 application for regular

permit is complained of in this writ petition. The learned Govt.

Pleader submits that a report of the enquiry officer is awaited and

soon after the receipt of the report orders on Ext. P1 will be passed.

2. True, a report of the enquiry officer is necessary, but then

the orders on an application for permit cannot be delayed

inordinately for that reason alone.

Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of directing that the

respondents shall expedite the report of the enquiry officer and

pass orders on Ext. P1 as expeditiously as possible, at any rate

within 3 months of production of a copy of this judgment.
