Nature of Litigation

Writ petitions filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of India challenging the legality of a Government Order dated 05.08.2015 issued by the State Transport Department and connected revisional orders of the Karnataka State Transport Appellate Tribunal, concerning transport permits and regulatory actions affecting private transport operators.

Remedy Sought

Petitioners sought a writ of certiorari to quash the Government Order dated 05.08.2015 and related revisional orders, thereby restoring their rights and permits as transport operators.

Filing Reason

The petitioners, who are transport operators, contended that the Government Order dated 05.08.2015 was passed illegally and arbitrarily, adversely affecting their existing transport permits and business operations.

Previous Decisions

The impugned orders included the Government Order dated 05.08.2015 and earlier orders of the Karnataka State Transport Appellate Tribunal in revision petitions such as R.P. No. 536 of 2012 dated 18.04.2015. The details of these orders are not specified in the available text.

Procedural History

Several writ petitions were filed before the Karnataka High Court challenging various government orders and revisional orders related to transport regulation. The lead petition, W.P. Nos. 49713-49720/2015, sought to quash the State Government's order dated 05.08.2015. Other connected petitions challenged orders of the Karnataka State Transport Appellate Tribunal. The court clubbed all these petitions and heard them together, with the final hearing on 03.05.2017.
