Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? **** Present: Mr. RK Verma, Advocate for the petitioner ***** SURYA KANT, J. (ORAL) (1). The petitioner was allowed to open a Verka Booth in the premises of Government Civil Hospital, Phase VI, SAS Nagar Mohali. (2). The record would show that the booth was opened on the authorization given by the Ropar District Co-operative Milk Producers Union Ltd., Milk Plant, SAS Nagar, Mohali. The local authorities of the hospital also accorded the necessary approval. The Managing Director of the Punjab Health Systems Corporation as soon as came to know about the opening of the aforesaid milk booth has got it ‘sealed’. (3). The petitioner who is a retiree is running from pillar to post for the re-opening of the booth as no reason CWP No.719 of 2011.doc - 2 – whatsoever to close/seal the subject booth has been conveyed to him so far. (4). The recommendations made by the Senior Medical Officer (E) Civil Hospital, Mohali (Annexure P8) and those made by the Ropar District Cooperative Milk Producers Union Ltd. (Annexure P9) as well as the legal notice dated 29.11.2010 (Annexure P7) served on behalf of the petitioner have also failed to persuade the Managing Director to take a reasonable and just decision in the matter. (5). In these circumstances and having heard learned counsel for the petitioner, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition, at this stage, with a direction to respondent No.2 to take an appropriate decision in the matter within 10 days from the date of receipt of certified copy of this order. (6). Ordered accordingly. Dasti. 14.01.2011 vishal shonkar (S u r y a K a n t) Judge
