Sabrad for the Petitioner. Mr.A.I.Patel, AGP. for the Respondent No.1. Mr. Vimal Joshi for the Respondent No.2. CORAM : R.S. MOHITE, J. DATE : 31st August, 2009 PC : 1. This is a contempt petition alleging violation of an order dated 19.6.2008 passed by the Division bench of this court. In the said order, the Division Bench observed that only remedy for the petitioner to submit a fresh application either for renewal of licence or for obtaining a fresh licence . If such an application was made, the competent authorities were directed to decide the said application within two months from the date of its receipt. It is the case of the respondents that 2 after passing of the order by the Division Bench, the petitioner had applied for renewal of licence on 2.7.2008. His grievance is that the same is not considered by the competent authorities. Non consideration of the same, amounts to contempt. On perusing the affidavit in reply, it seems to be the stand of the respondents that application was not submitted in the prescribed form-13 and the same was made on the letter head. It is also submitted that the same was not moved by the concerned licence holder. Both the parties are agreeable that if fresh application is made in the prescribed form for grant of licence, the same application will be decided on its own merits within a period of 60 days from the date of receipt of the application. It is agreed that authorities will not insist on documents which were earlier submitted by the petitioner, while moving his earlier application. With these directions, contempt petition is disposed off. ( R.S. MOHITE, J.)
