     THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON
07.04.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
 WP(C).No.31168 OF 2019(U)      2




                         JUDGMENT

Dated this the 7th day of April 2021

The petitioner is a stage carriage operator conducting the

service. On account of the discrepancies in the timing, the

petitioner claimed that he could not adhere to Ext.P1 timing.

Accordingly, Ext.P2 request, seeking certain changes in the

existing timing was filed. The grievance is that the above

application has not been taken up and considered till now.

After hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner, the

learned counsel for the respondent and the Senior Government

Pleader I am inclined to dispose of the writ petition by

directing the respondents to consider Ext.P2 application as

expeditiously as possible at any rate within a period of six

week from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment on

the basis of a field report to be obtained from the concerned

officer and after giving a reasonable opportunity to objectors if

any. It is also reported that a variation application is pending.

Ext.P2 shall be considered after the variation application is

taken up for consideration and thereafter Ext.P2 shall be

considered within the above six weeks.
