That Petition was disposed of with 2 wp6623-10 direction to respondent no.2 to decide application of petitioner within time frame. Accordingly, respondent no.2 has informed the petitioner vide letter dated 21/5/2010 that approval of revised guidelines for grant of licenses to the photographers is under consideration of the Government and hence they cannot grant his application unless the revised guidelines are approved. It is not clear whether till this date, approval of revised guidelines is obtained. Learned counsel for the petitioner is also not in a position to state whether such approval has been granted. 4] Under these circumstances, we dispose of this Petition with direction to respondent no.2, to consider the application of the petitioner immediately after the revised guidelines are obtained. If the approval of the revised guidelines is already obtained, they may pass appropriate orders on the application filed by the petitioner, within a period of 4 weeks from the date of receipt of this order. It is open to the petitioner to approach respondent no.2, to find out whether revised guidelines are approved and seek 3 wp6623-10 decision on his application. 5] With these observations, Writ Petition is disposed of.
