The petitioners are Private Limited Companies carrying on business as transport operators on different routes, some of which fall within the territorial limits of the State of Himachal Pradesh. While operating on those routes, the petitioners cover a portion of three other routes, Chobin-Dhangu, Naura-Dhangu and Kangra-Dhangu.2. It appears that the State Government has under contemplation a scheme for entrusting the operation of transport services generally over all routes in Himachal Pradesh to the State Transport undertaking and pending the finalisation and enforcement of that scheme of 'nationalisation' (as it appears to be popularly described) it does not grant regular permits to private operators but merely temporary permits issued from time to time. In the grant of such temporary permits it follows the procedure prescribed under Section 57 of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1939,3.
