SUBHASH CHANDER vs STATE TRANSPORT APPELLAT TRIBUNAL .

The Court addressed the issue of granting mini-bus permits under the liberalised policy introduced by Section 80 of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988. It observed that existing permit holders were attempting to obstruct new applicants to avoid competition despite the legislative shift toward liberalisation. The Court held that the legal position on this matter was already concluded by the precedent in Jagdip Singh v. Jagir Chand.
