IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.12731 of 2003 MD.AMIL Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 3 11.02.2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner. On the own showing of the petitioner, the impugned order in this writ application being a show cause notice cannot be successfully assailed by the petitioner. The Licensing Authority had every reason to at least give a show cause notice as to why the license of the petitioner should not be cancelled. Since this was only a show cause notice, it was all the more incumbent for the petitioner, the Licensee, to at least respond to such show cause notice and file his explanation. Such show cause notice, being well within the competence and jurisdiction of the licensing authority, is incapable of being assailed in a writ petition. That being so, this writ application is wholly misconceived and is hereby dismissed. Bibhash (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
