Tamil Nadu government on Thursday committed itself at Madras High Court that it will install GPRS instrument in all autorickshaws within 3 to 4 months.
A PIL was filed by Coimbatore Consumer Voice chief Logu seeking rationalization of autorickshaw fares in Coimbatore. Later its scope was extended to cover the whole state. Since, inspite of several rulings, officials had not enforced court orders, Logu filed the present contempt of court petition to punish officials for failure to implement the court`s eight-point charter of guidelines, including the one relating to periodic review of fares based on variation of international crude oil prices.
When a contempt of court petition, seeking to punish transport department officials for having failed to comply with the orders of the court, came up for hearing before the first bench of Chief Justice Sanjay Kishan Kaul and Justice M Sathyanarayanan on Thursday, additional advocate-general of Tamil Nadu Mani Shankar informed the court that contract for supply of GPRS instrument had been issued to ELCOT already.
Recording the submission, the First Bench of Chief Justice S. K. Kaul and Justice M. Sathyanarayanan posted the PIL moved by Coimbatore Consumer Voice to December 6 for further hearing.
