Dated this the 16th day of November, 2011 JUDGMENT Petitioner challenges Ext.P1 order placing the petitioner's ARD licence under suspension. As rightly pointed out in the statement filed on behalf of the first respondent, petitioner has a remedy of appeal under clause 45(8) of the Kerala Rationing Order. Therefore, it is unnecessary for this Court to entertain the writ petition. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of leaving it open to the petitioner to file his appeal before the second respondent. It is directed that if such an appeal is filed within two weeks from today, the second respondent will entertain and consider the same on merits. ANTONY DOMINIC, Judge mrcs /true copy/ P.A. To Judge
