J U D G M E N T

The limited prayer in this writ petition is for a direction to the respondent to consider and pass appropriate orders on Ext.P1, which was submitted by the petitioner for revision of own timings.

2.

The petitioner is operating on the route between Mukkom and Kozhikode via Kattangal, ERC, Mavoor and Peruvayal with his stage carriage bearing Reg.No.KL-11/W 8577. According to him, since changes in timings effected in respect of other services operating on the very same route, there arose vacant timings; and modification of timings of the petitioner's service has become absolutely essential. Hence, the petitioner filed Ext.P1 application for revision of timings of his own service. Aggrieved by the non consideration of Ext.P1 by the respondent, the petitioner has approached this Court. 2.

Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner

and the learned Government Pleader in the matter. Considering the nature of the prayer, the writ petition is disposed of directing the respondent to consider and pass appropriate orders on Ext.P1 after affording the petitioner and the affected parties, if any, an opportunity of being heard, within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. To facilitate an early action, the petitioner shall be at liberty to produce a copy of this judgment as well as a copy of this writ petition before the respondent at the earliest.
