Judgment & Decree

R. A. MAHAMMADI.‑

At its meeting on 17th December 1956, R. T. A. Rawalpindi resolved to grant two permits for three years each to Pindi Hazara Transport Company (Respon dent No. 2) and Northern Punjab Transport Company (Res pondent No. 3) for the Rawalpindi Chakri route The agenda for this meeting was published on 7th December 1956. There was nothing in it to show that any application had been filed by these two Companies for the grant of route permits on this route or that they would be taken up for consideration. On 19th December 1956, the Authority published the applica tions of these Companies for the said route permits, but this publication did not say when these applications would be taken up for consideration. Thereafter, the R. T. A. introduced the consideration of these applications at its meeting of 17th December 1956, through a supplementary agenda which was neither published nor given publicity. As, by disposing of this case in the above manner, the R. T. A. failed to comply with the provisions of section 57 of the Act, I set aside their order. The case should be remanded back to the R. T. A. to enable it to decide the matter afresh in accordance with the provisions of the Motor Vehicles Act. K.M.A. Case remanded.
