THE BLOCK SUUPLY INSPECTOR PHULWARI-SHARIFF,DISTT-PATNA ----------- 2/ 12/05/2011 From the pleadings of the parties it is clear that the appeal preferred by the petitioner against the cancellation of his P.D.S. Licence is still pending since 15.5.2008. It is unfortunate that the counter affidavit simply admits it and stops at that without explaining why the appeal has not been disposed off. This application is disposed with directions to the appellate authority to dispose off E.C. Appeal No.10/08-09 within a maximum period of one month from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order in accordance with law. The application is disposed. KC ( Navin Sinha, J.)
