2. The main prayer in this writ petition is to issue appropriate direction to respondent Nos. 3 and 4 to implement the decision of the Traffic Regulatory Committee as evident by Ext.P2 prior to the commencement of the academic year. The petitioner is the Chairman of the Managing Committee of the District Institute of Education & Training (DIET) School, Attingal. According to the petitioner, the school conducts classes from Grade I to VII and has more than 1000 students. The petitioner is aggrieved by the unauthorised and unregulated parking of vehicles on the eastern side of the school gate, which blocks ingress and egress to the school and causes serious inconvenience. Now, the Traffic Regulatory Committee issued Ext.P2 order. The same is not implemented is the grievance.

3. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner ad the learned Standing Counsel appearing for the Municipality.

4. After hearing both sides, I think there can be a direction to the statutory authority to implement Ext.P2 decision, if it became final and the same is not challenged before any authority.

Therefore, this writ petition is disposed of with the following direction :

1) The 3^rd and 4^th respondents will see that Ext.P2 is implemented in letter and spirit before the school reopens, if it became final and is not challenged before any statutory authority or forum.
