J U D G M E N T
The petitioner has submitted Ext.P1 application for
grant of regular permit for operating stage carriage service on
the route, Ernakulam High Court Junction – Manjapra. The
said application was rejected as per Ext.P2. Feeling aggrieved
by the same the petitioner has preferred an appeal as MVAA
No. 117/2010 before the State Transport Appellate Tribunal.
The said appeal was allowed as per Ext.P4 and the impugned
order was set aside. The first respondent therein/the first
respondent herein was directed to grant fresh regular permit
to the appellant as applied for, subject to settlement of
timings. It is aggrieved by the delay in the matter of
complying with the directions in Ext.P4 judgment that this
writ petition has been filed.
2. I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner
and also the learned Government Pleader. Evidently, the
impugned order under Ext.P2 was set aside by the State
Transport Appellate Tribunal as per Ext.P4. After setting
WPC.33589
: 2 :
aside the impugned order a further direction was issued to
grant regular permit to the appellant as applied for subject to
settlement of timings. Therefore, in the light of Ext.P4 the
first respondent is bound to consider Ext.P1 application and to
grant the same subject to settlement of timings. This shall be
done expeditiously, at any rate, within a period of one month
from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment with notice
to the petitioner and also other operators on the route.
