Rejoinder filed on behalf of the petitioner to the written reply filed by the respondents is taken on record. 2. The petitioner has sought for deletion of his name from the black list/negative list maintained by the Punjab Government in view of the order passed by the Ministry of Home Affairs on 13.01.2009. The counsel for the State says that the petitioner's name has been removed from the said list. Consequently, as regards the first prayer, there is no grievance to be redressed now. 3. The second prayer is for a recall/withdrawal of a letter CWP No.11372 of 2011 (O&M) [2] issued by the SSP, SBS Nagar to the District Magistrate giving information of the fact that the petitioner had been involved in some activities of terrorism. It is not a communication directed to the petitioner. The petitioner's grievance appears to be that if he applies for Arms licence, the communication of the 2nd respondent to the 3rd respondent could be used against him. So long as the order has not been issued and the petitioner has not come to any immediate harm by virtue of the said communication, it shall not be necessary to cancel or quash the same. The petitioner is at liberty to apply for Arms licence and the authority will consider the present status and his entitlement in the light of any material that the petitioner chooses to bring in support of his clam to entitlement with the law would permit. Suffice it to observe that the petitioner's remedy shall be under the relevant provisions of the Arms Act and there is no direction necessary for the present even as regards the second prayer. 4. The writ petition is disposed of NOVEMBER 23, 2011 ( K. KANNAN ) Rajan JUDGE
