FARAD CONTINUATION SHEET NO. IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE, BENCH AT AURANGABAD WRIT PETITION NO. 1484 OF 2010 (Anusayabai wd/o Shivajirao Savle Vs. State of Maharashtra & Ors.) ________________________________________________________ Office Notes, Office | Memoranda of Coram, | Court's or Judge's orders appearances, Court's | orders or directions | and Registrar's orders | ________________________________________________________ Heard counsel for the parties. Having regard to the overwhelming opposition of local women for continuation of liquor shop in the area, direction issued by the Collector, Nanded, to close down the concerned liquor shop is unexceptionable. It is well established that the person cannot claim fundamental right to do liquor business, it is only a statutory right. In the present case, as aforesaid, by overwhelming majority the local women are opposed to continuation of the said liquor shop. Hence, dismissed. It will be open to the petitioner to pursuade the authorities to shift the liquor shop to some other area where it can be established, if acceptable to the local people. Petition dismissed on the above terms. (S. S. SHINDE. J.) (A. M. KHANWILKAR, J.) Date:25.02.2010. rlj/
