IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No 7339 of 2009 Lali Thakur @ Lalu Prasad Thakur, son of late Ram Prasad Thakur, Resident of village – Padma, P S – Ladania, District – Madhubani - Petitioner Versus 1 The State of Bihar 2 The Chief Conservator of Forest, Environment and Forest Department, State of Bihar, Patna 3 The Conservator of Forest, Tirhut Forest Extension Division, Muzaffarpur 4 Divisional Forest Officer, Darbhanga, Tirhut Forest Extension Division, Darbhanga 5 Regional Forest Officer, Madhubani Range, Madhubani - Respondents ----------- 2 04.03.2010 The petitioner applied for a licence for running a saw mill in the year, 1994 without complying with the formalities. He was reminded several times by the licensing authority and ultimately in the year 1999, he completed the formalities and was granted a licence. Apparently, in view of the order of the Apex Court in the case of T Govardhan wherein the Apex Court directed that none of the State Governments would grant licence for saw mill after 1996, the licence of the petitioner was cancelled. Petitioner came to this Court but the writ petition was disposed of giving him opportunity to file an appeal. Appeal is pending. Petitioner has once again come to this Court. In my view, in the facts, as noted above, no relief can be granted to the petitioner. Writ petition is, accordingly, dismissed. M.E.H./ (Navaniti Prasad Singh)
