                   JUDGMENT

The application for temporary permit given by the

petitioner was rejected mainly on the ground that another

Stage Carriage Operator has been issued with a temporary

permit in the very same vacancy.

2. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that

the temporary permit issued to the said Stage Carriage

Operator is valid only till 09.05.2024 and therefore, there can

be no legal impediment for the respondent in considering

Ext.P2 application for the subsequent period commencing

from 10.05.2024.

3. It is upto the petitioner to file a fresh application

seeking temporary permit for the period commencing from

10.05.2024. If such an application is filed, the respondent is

directed to consider and pass orders on the same in

accordance with law.

This writ petition is disposed of as above.
