IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.3340 of 2008 Ranjan Kumar, son of Nirmal Kumar, Village- Nabi Nagar, P.S.- Nabi Nagar, District- aurangabad. Versus 1. The State Of Bihar 2. The S.D.O., Aurangabad. ----------- 3 02.08.2011 The petitioner has filed the present writ application for quashing the order dated 15.06.2007 passed by respondent no.2 whereby, the P.D.S. dealership license of the petitioner has been cancelled on the ground that the petitioner has not deposited the license fee for the year 2002. The attention of this Court has been drawn to Annexure-4, which reflects that the license was valid from 1992 to 2002 and from 2003 onwards the petitioner has deposited the renewal fee. In view of the alternative remedy of appeal, the petitioner is permitted to file an appeal when it is expected that the Appellate Authority will consider the condonation of delay in filing the appeal in view of the pendency of the writ application before this Court. It is also expected that the Appellate Authority will dispose off the appeal within a period of two months 2 of the receipt/production of the copy of this order. With the above observation, this writ application is disposed off. Amrendra/ (Dinesh Kumar Singh, J)
