Having heard Mr. Dinesh Kumar Singh, Senior Advocate for the petitioner, J.C. to G.A. VII for the State and taking into consideration the facts and circumstances of the case, I deem it expedient that District Magistrate, Saran at Chapra takes decision on the application of the petitioner, if already not taken, within six months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. I direct accordingly. It is made clear that I have not expressed any opinion in regard to the claim made by the petitioner for grant of 2 licence. It is further made clear that any deviation in carrying out the order within the time stipulated shall be viewed seriously. Application stands disposed off with the observation aforesaid.
