WP(C) 43/2011 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE B. P. KATAKEY Heard Mr H Buragohain, learned counsel for the petitioners, as well as Mrs S Sea l, learned Standing Counsel for Excise Department appearing for the respondent N os.1 & 2. The grievance of the petitioners, in present petition, is that a proposal has be en submitted by the Commissioner of Excise to the Secretary to Government of Ass am in the Excise Department for grant of IMFL bonded-warehouse licence in favour of the respondent No.4, in violation of the provisions of Assam Excise Act and the Rules framed there-under. It is also the case of the petitioners that though several representations have been filed by them before the Secretary to Governm ent of Assam in the Excise Department as well as to the Deputy Commissioner, Tin sukia district, those have not been considered till date. It appears from the impugned communication dated 27 December 2010 that a proposa l has been forwarded by the Commissioner of Excise to the Secretary to Governmen t of Assam in the Excise Department for grant of IMFL bonded-warehouse licence, on which the Government is yet to take a decision on the matter. That being the position, I am not inclined at this stage to interfere with the s aid communication dated 27 December 2010. It is, however, made clear that in cas e the Government takes any decision to grant licence in favour of anyone, it wou ld be open to the petitioners to ventilate their grievances before the appropria te forum. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed. No costs.
