In the instant writ application the petitioner prays for directing the authorities to produce memo No. 1057 dated 16.11.1995 by which the licence of the petitioner being Licence No. 196/91 for village Satjora Mathiya in the District of Siwan has been cancelled. He has also prayed for bringing on record memo No. 196 dated 23.03.1996 whereby his fair price shop retail licence has been cancelled. Petitioner has also prayed for directing the authorities to revoke suspension/cancellation of his licence being Licence No. 196/91. Petitioner is a retail licence holder of kerosene oil and food grains under the Public Distribution System for Briti Tola and Jagdish Giri Ke Tola(Satjora Ke Mathiya), 2 Gram Panchayat Satojora, Block-Daraunda, District-Siwan. Petitioner had earlier got licence of Public Distribution System bearing Licence No. 196/91 vide Challan No. 67 dated 29.08.1991 which is contained in Annexure-1 and thereafter petitioner became licence holder under the Bihar Trade Articles Unification Order. It is submitted that the Block Supply Officer, Daraunda and Sub-Divisional Officer, Maharagganj has issued a general order by which all the licence holders who were not the villagers of that very Gram Panchayat were stopped supply of articles of Public Distribution System. Learned counsel submits that petitioner was discriminated as already similarly situated licence holders were allowed to make supply. Learned counsel further submits that by memo No. 520 dated 13.03.1997 the Additional Collector in pursuance to the order of the District Magistrate, Siwan directed for reviving the licence of the petitioner. Learned counsel submits that even thereafter the supply of kerosene oil and food grains for the Public Distribution System has not been started. Learned counsel submits that he has made detail representation on 19.01.2004 before the District Magistrate, Siwan for appropriate direction for renewal of his licence, but up till now the aforesaid representation has not been disposed. Learned counsel for the State seeks time to file counter affidavit. 3 This case has been filed in the year 2005 and in that view of the matter, this Court does not find appropriate to keep this case pending. However, in the facts and circumstances of the case, let the petitioner file a detail representation before the District Magistrate, Siwan along with necessary details and relevant documents in support of his case. The District Magistrate, Siwan will dispose off the same by speaking order preferably within a period of three months from the date of receipt of production of a copy of this order before him. The writ application with the aforesaid observation stands disposed off. Shageer (S.P. Singh, J)
