Settlement of timings of the petitioner in WP(C) No.26966/2021 is to be considered in the timing conference scheduled on 01.12.2021. The petitioners in W.P.(C) No.26943/2021 are the rival operators/objectors.
2. The learned Senior Government Pleader, on instructions, submits that the Secretary, RTA is inflicted with Covid and hence the meeting scheduled to 01.12.2021 cannot happen.
3. It would be sufficient if the matter is taken up in the next meeting and the petitioners in these writ petitions are also heard in addition to other interested parties, if any, and appropriate orders passed.
4. Accordingly it is ordered that the settlement of
timings of the petitioner in W.P.(C) No.26966/2021 scheduled to be held on 01.12.2021 shall be done in the next timing conference and the same shall be done with W. P.(C) Nos.26966 & 26943 of 2021 -: 2 :- due notice to the petitioners in these writ petitions and other rival operators/interested parties.
