JUDGMENT

The petitioner has approached this Court seeking a direction to the respondent for the replacement of the petitioner's stage carriage.

2.

The petitioner is an existing stage carriage operator on the route between Alakkode and Thrissur and the permit was issued in respect of stage carriage No.KL 13 T/9369, which is valid till 30.5.2016. The petitioner alleges that he obtained clearance certificate of the old vehicle and submitted application for replacement. The respondent has not considered the application till date.

3.

I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader in the matter. Considering the nature of the submissions and the nature of the relief sought for, the writ petition is disposed of directing the respondent to consider Ext.P2 application for replacement
