         An   organisation   called   Drivers   Union   K.T.U.C.(M)  Uzhavoor,   has<\/p>\n
filed   this   writ   petition   through   its   President   Sri.   Simon   Parappanattu,<\/p>\n
claiming that the said organisation has got “more than 50 taxi operators of<\/p>\n
Uzhavoor town” as its members.  The primary prayer in the writ petition is<\/p>\n
extracted hereunder:\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
          “Issue   a   writ   of   mandamus   or   any   other   order   or   direction<\/p>\n
        directing the 2nd respondent not to prohibit the parking of taxi<\/p>\n
        vehicles at the place allotted by Ext.P2”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
         2.        A   perusal   of   Ext.P2   shows   that   it   is   only   a<\/p>\n
recommendation\/guideline   for   regulation   of   traffic   in   Uzhavoor   town<\/p>\n
prepared   by   one   Professor   Joseph   George   Kannat   in   August   2003.     In<\/p>\n
Ext.P2, the Professor has given certain suggestions as to how the traffic in<\/p>\n
Uzhavoor  town  can  be  regulated  in  order  to   achieve development  of the<\/p>\n
town.   Apparently, the suggestions made by the  Professor are based on<\/p>\n
his personal knowledge.  In Ext.P2, the Professor has invited the recipient<\/p>\n
thereof to attend the public meeting, which was scheduled to be held on<\/p>\n
September 3, 2003 at the conference hall of Uzhavoor Co-operative Bank<\/p>\n
under the chairmanship of Revenue Divisional Officer, Pala.<\/p>\n
         3.     I   have   referred   to   Ext.P2   only   to   indicate   that   it   is   neither   an<\/p>\n
official   document   nor   a   circular\/order   issued   by   any   competent   statutory<\/p>\n
WPC NO.9336\/04                             Page numbers<\/p>\n
authority.     Nothing   has   been   brought   to   my  notice   to   show   that   the   said<\/p>\n
document   has   been   approved   or   accepted   by   any   statutory   authority   for<\/p>\n
implementation.  It is the said document that is sought to be enforced and<\/p>\n
implemented   at   the   intervention   of   this   Court   by   issuance   of   a   writ   of<\/p>\n
mandamus   to   respondent   No.2,     the   Sub   Inspector   of   the   Local   Police<\/p>\n
Station.     Having perused the averments and the reliefs sought for in the<\/p>\n
writ   petition,   I   have  no   hesitation   to   hold   that   this   is   clearly   an   abuse   of<\/p>\n
process.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
          4.     There   is   yet  another   reason   which  persuades   me   to   take   the<\/p>\n
above view.  Some of the traders in Uzhavoor town had earlier approached<\/p>\n
this Court with a grievance that taxis and other public vehicles were being<\/p>\n
parked in front of their business establishments causing inconvenience to<\/p>\n
them.  By judgment dated February 11, 2004 in W.P.C. No. 28346\/03 this<\/p>\n
Court had directed the 2nd respondent to make an “endeavor to regulate the<\/p>\n
parking   of   vehicles   so   that   minimum   obstruction   is   caused   to   the<\/p>\n
petitioners’   shop   rooms   till   alternate   parking   arrangements   are   made.”<\/p>\n
Ext.P1   is   the   copy   of   the   said   judgment   in   which   the   petitioner   was   of<\/p>\n
course not a party.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
          5.  It is seen that the petitioner had submitted Ext.P5 representation<\/p>\n
before   the   Secretary   of   the   Grama   Panchayat   requesting   him   to   take<\/p>\n
necessary   steps   to   ensure   that   the   2nd  respondent,   does   not   take   any<\/p>\n
action  against  the taxi drivers in  the  light   of Ext.P1 judgment.   It is  seen<\/p>\n
WPC NO.9336\/04                            Page numbers<\/p>\n
mentioned   in   Ext.P5   that   the   Police   had   been   taking   action   against   the<\/p>\n
erring taxi drivers in obedience to the directions issued in Ext.P1 judgment.<\/p>\n
It is the said action of the 2nd  respondent that was sought to be prevented<\/p>\n
by  the   petitioner   in   Ext.P5   representation   through   the   intervention   of   the<\/p>\n
Secretary   of   the   Grama   Panchayat.     It   is   evident   from   Ext.P5   that   the<\/p>\n
petitioner had been trying to prevent the implementation of the directions<\/p>\n
contained in Ext.P1 judgment.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
          6.     Respondents   No.   4   and   5     who   are   two   of   the   traders   in<\/p>\n
Uzhavoor   town   have   in   their   counter   affidavit   specifically   contended   that<\/p>\n
the so called Drivers’ union in the name of which this writ petition has been<\/p>\n
filed is not a registered one.  It is also contented by these respondents that<\/p>\n
such   a   union   does   not   exist   at   all   and   that   there   is   only   one   registered<\/p>\n
drivers’   union   at   Uzhavoor,   which   is   known   as   Uzhavoor   Drivers’<\/p>\n
Association.  It is further contended that the petitioner, who claims to be the<\/p>\n
President of Drivers’ Union K.T.U.C.(M), is not a taxi driver at all and that<\/p>\n
he is only a local leader of a political party.   Though the petitioner in his<\/p>\n
reply   affidavit   has   made   a   vague   attempt   to   deny   the   allegation   that   his<\/p>\n
union  is  not   a  registered   one,  no   document  has  been  produced  to   show<\/p>\n
that his organisation has been registered.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
          7.     Learned   Government   Pleader   has   invited   my   attention   to   the<\/p>\n
written instructions received in the case from the Sub Inspector of Police,<\/p>\n
Kuravilangad.  It has been informed by the 2nd respondent that pursuant to<\/p>\n
WPC NO.9336\/04                             Page numbers<\/p>\n
Ext.P1   judgment,   the   Revenue   Divisional   Officer,   Pala,   the   authorities   of<\/p>\n
Uzhavoor   Grama   Panchayat   and   others   had   earmarked   and   allotted<\/p>\n
separate slots for parking of public vehicles in Uzhavoor town.  Pursuant to<\/p>\n
the above, the Police had taken steps to implement the decisions taken by<\/p>\n
the authorities mentioned above.   It has been further informed by the 2nd<\/p>\n
respondent that  at present there  is  no problem in the town as far as the<\/p>\n
parking of public vehicle is concerned.  No law and order situation or traffic<\/p>\n
congestion had been reported after implementation of the decision taken<\/p>\n
by the authorities concerned.  The above submissions made by the learned<\/p>\n
Government   Pleader   in   the   light   of   the   written   instructions   from   the   2nd<\/p>\n
respondent are recorded.\n<\/p>\n
\n.           In   the   above   circumstances,   I   am   satisfied   that   this   is   a   fit   case<\/p>\n
where the petitioner has to be mulcted with cost payable to respondents 3<\/p>\n
and   4   which   is   quantified   at   Rs.5,000\/-.     The   cost   shall   be   paid   by   Sri.<\/p>\n
Simon Parappanattu, President of the petitioners’ union, within one month<\/p>\n
from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment, failing which it will be<\/p>\n
open to the respondents 3 and 4 to execute the same in accordance with<\/p>\n
law.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
            The writ petition is dismissed with cost as indicated above.<\/p>\n
1.3.07                                                                     A.K. BASHEER, JUDGE<\/p>\n
            This writ petition is posted as “to be spoken to” at the request of the<\/p>\n
learned counsel for the petitioner.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
WPC NO.9336\/04                          Page numbers<\/p>\n
          2.  It is contended by the learned counsel that there was no attempt<\/p>\n
on the part of the petitioner to circumvent the direction issued by this Court<\/p>\n
in Ext.P1 judgment.   What was sought for, was only for some appropriate<\/p>\n
action   to   ensure   that   the   directions   contained   in   Ext.P1   judgment   were<\/p>\n
implemented.   But a perusal of the prayer in the writ petition undoubtedly<\/p>\n
indicates that the respondents wanted to get the suggestions or opinions<\/p>\n
indicated in Ext.P2 to be enforced.  As mentioned earlier, Ext.P2 document<\/p>\n
was prepared by an individual who had no statutory sanction authority to<\/p>\n
do  so.     No  document has   been  produced  before  this   Court   to  show  that<\/p>\n
Ext.P2   was   liable   to   be   enforced   by   issuance   of   a   writ   from   this   Court.<\/p>\n
More importantly, it is evident from Ext.P5 that the attempt of the petitioner<\/p>\n
was to implement all the directions contained in Ext.P1 judgment.<\/p>\n
       In the above facts and   circumstances, I do not find any reason to<\/p>\n
modify the directions issued by me in the judgment dated March 1, 2007.<\/p>\n
6.3.07                                                                   A.K.
