Circle Officer, Sasaram, Rohtas. …….Respondents. ----------- 02. 19.03.2009 The matter relates to the issuance of the arms license where the District Magistrate who is the licensing authority has not responded to a request for issuance of arms license right from the year 1998. From perusal of Annexure-2, it seems that the District Magistrate is aware of the orders passed by the High Court in C.W. J.C. No. 13496 of 2004 which is the case of Dwivedi Surendra versus the State of Bihar but still even after 2005 and on filing of an affidavit by the petitioner in the year 2005 itself as contained in Annexure-3, proper direction has not been issued as yet. The writ application is disposed of with a direction upon the respondent No. 2, the District Magistrate, Sasaram, Rohtas that he shall pass an appropriate order and communicate the same to the 2 petitioner within a period of four months from the date of receipt of the production of the copy of this order. With the aforesaid observations and directions, the writ petition stands disposed of. Shageer (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J)
