Case Overview
- Petitioners: Fourteen vehicle owners and firms (including Shiv Shankar, Jai Bhagwan, Shri Krishna Traders, Manish Trading Co., Sadguru Sai Logistics, Tilak Raj Enterprises, Bhati Building Material Supplier, S R Minerals, etc.) filed S.B. Civil Writ Petition No. 11596/2026 seeking (i) revocation of suspension of their vehicle registration certificates, (ii) removal of their vehicles from the blacklist/NTBT, (iii) award of costs, and (iv) any other appropriate relief.
- Respondents: State of Rajasthan, Transport Department and various District/Regional Transport Officers.
- The petitioners alleged over‑loading and alteration of vehicles leading to suspension of registration certificates.
- The Court observed that the same legal questions had been decided in earlier judgments (Kanwar Singh & Ors. Vs. State of Rajasthan & Ors., S.B.C.W.P. No. 9721 and Mustak & Ors. Vs. State of Rajasthan & Ors., S.B.C.W.P. 20073/2025) and therefore the present petition should be disposed of on that basis.
Final Outcome
- The writ petition is disposed with a direction that each petitioner must appear before the concerned District/Regional Transport Officer within one week of this order.
- The transport officer shall conduct a hearing and pass an order within two weeks of the petitioners' appearance.
- Petitioners are prohibited from driving their vehicles on public roads for any purpose during the verification period.
- No order granting revocation of suspension, removal from blacklist, or costs was made; the relief sought remains ungranted.
