             SENIOR GOVERNMENT PLEADER SRI. K.P HARISH

     THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON
07.01.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
 WP(C).No.22911 OF 2020(L)

                                   3




                            JUDGMENT

Dated this the 7th day of January 2021

The grievance of the petitioner herein is that Ext.P8

application filed by him for renewal is still pending. A counter

affidavit has been filed stating that the application for renewal

of permit has been marked for consideration and posted to be

placed in the next RTO meeting. The prayer sought is that,

due to the present pandemic situation, the RTO meetings are

not being convened and hence, if for any reason, RTO

meetings cannot be held, the decision may be taken by

circulation under Rule 130 of the Kerala Motor Vehicles Rules.

2. When the matter was taken up, the learned

Government Pleader on instructions submitted that

subsequent to the filing of counter affidavit, it has been

informed that the matter has now been sent for orders by

circulation. Having considered this, I am inclined to close the WP(C).No.22911 OF 2020(L)

Writ Petition with a direction that appropriate decision on

Ext.P8 shall be taken by circulation and complete the process

at the earliest, not later than three weeks from the date of

receipt of a copy of this judgment.

Accordingly, the Writ Petition is closed.
