CWP.No.612/2008. 10.7.2008. Present: Mr.Rahul Mahajan, Advocate, for the Petitioner. Mr.Sandeep Sharma, Asstt. Solicitor General of India for respondent No.1. Mr.Vishal Panwar, Advocate for respondents No. 2 to 4 The petitioner has assailed the letter dated 20th February, 2008 issued by respondent No.4, asking the petitioner to immediately stop marking the license number and the ISI mark on the product for the reasons contained therein. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the said letter has been issued in gross violation of the provisions of regulation 5(5)(b) of the Bureau of Indian Standard (Certification) Regulations 1988. Further, pursuant to the issuance of this letter another notice dated 19th March, 2008 was issued asking the petitioner to show cause as to why the licence be not cancelled. According to the learned counsel, the authorities have acted with malice and have, in fact, deliberately allowed the petitioner’s licence to expire on 2nd April, 2008 which is evidence from the fact that no order was passed pursuant to the issuance of the said show cause notice. Per contra, learned counsel for the respondents submits that there is an equally efficacious alternate remedy available with the petitioner, inasmuch as he can file an appeal under Section 16(1) of the Bureau of Indian Standard Act 1986. He, however, submits that the petitioner’s application dated 2nd April, 2008 (Annexure:A- 4) for renewal shall be considered by the authorities in accordance with law. Without going into the merits of the matter and taking in view of the submission made by the learned counsel for the respondents, we are of the considered view that the petitioner can either file an appeal or take recourse to such alternate remedy as may be available to him in accordance with law. We take on record the statement made by the learned counsel for the respondents and as such the respondents are directed to consider the petitioner’s application, after fully complying with the principles of natural justice and decide the same as expeditiously as possible and preferably within a period of one month from today. With these observations, the writ petition stands disposed of so also the pending applications. (Jagdish Bhalla), C.J. (Sanjay Karol),J. July 10, 2008(R)
