Being aggrieved by the said order of the 3 respondent, the petitioner had filed W.P. No.385/1995. That writ petition was disposed of by this Court on 12/07/2005. The Court, in view of the fact that the whole scheme under which authorisations have been granted was changed, while disposing ofthe writ petition, reserved liberty to the petitioner herein to apply under the new scheme for grant of licence for 18 ,y- running fair price shop. Accordingly, the petitioner made an application to the 3rd respondent for grant of iicence to run fair price shop in Kirandool vitlage. That application hasbeen rejected by the 3rd respondent by the impugned order dated 06/10/2005, marked as Annexure-P/1. !n the impugned order, it is pointed out that the licence has to b.e granted under the new scheme on priority basis and since the licence to run fair price shop in Kirandool village is already granted to the Marketing Society whlch is a Co-operative Society and Which has preference over the category six societies and since the petitioner-society falls under sixth category, it could not be granted licence. The reason stated by the 3 respondent to reject the application of the petitioner for grant of licence is unexceptionable. This writ petition is also liable to be dismissed in fimine on the ground of non-joinder of necessary parties . The Marketing Society has been granted licence to run fair price shop in KirandooS village and, therefore, that society should have been impleaded as party- respondent to the writ petition. Looking from any angle, i do not find any merit in this writ petition and it does not deserve acceptance. It is accordingly dismissed.No costs. Sd/- ChiefJustice ^
