The petitioner has in view of the change in circumstances,<\/p>\n<p>including introduction of other services on the same route or sectors<\/p>\n<p>thereof, submitted Ext.P2 application      dated 28.9.2010 before the<\/p>\n<p>respondent for revision of the time schedule. The grievance voiced by<\/p>\n<p>the petitioner is that though more than three months have passed<\/p>\n<p>after Ext.P2 application was submitted, till date, orders have not been<\/p>\n<p>passed thereon. In this writ petition, the petitioner seeks a direction<\/p>\n<p>to the respondent to consider the request in Ext.P2 and take an<\/p>\n<p>appropriate decision thereon within a time limit to be fixed by this<\/p>\n<p>Court.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_1\">            2.
