THE HON'BLE MS JUSTICE G.ROHINI WRIT PETITION No.739 of 2010 ORDER: This writ petition is filed seeking a Mandamus directing the respondents 1 to 5 to restrain the 6th respondent from committing the acts of illegality in violation of the licence conditions, especially to the detriment of the business interest of the petitioner in her premises bearing No.110, in Ground Floor forming part of premises bearing No.3-6-147/A/1, Twiga Sri Ramulu Complex, situated at Himayathnagar, Hyderabad. Heard the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Prohibition and Excise appearing for respondents 1 to 3 and perused the material available on record including the counter affidavits filed by the 3rd respondent and the 6th respondent respectively. The material available on record shows that the 6th respondent being the successful bidder was granted Form-A4 licence to run a retail wine shop in Shop No.109 in the ground floor of the premises bearing No. 3-6-147/A/1, Himayatnagar, Hyderabad, on 29-06-2008. Accordingly, the 6th respondent has been carrying on business under the name and style of M/s.Ambience Wines and the licence is valid upto 30-06-2010. The writ petitioner, who is the owner of the adjacent shop bearing No.110, has let out the same to one Venkataramaiah for running a computerised reservation centre for APSRTC as well as Maruti Auto consultancy. The petitioner made several complaints to respondent Nos. 1 to 3 as well as the 4th respondent alleging unauthorized acts by the 6th respondent. Pursuant thereto, the Chief Medical Officer of Health, Greater Hyderabad, Municipal Corporation, submitted an inspection report, dated 05-10-2009, bringing to the notice of the 1st respondent that the 6th respondent was encouraging consumption of liquor in the premises, which was not permissible under the licence conditions. The petitioner alleges that inspite of the said report the 1st respondent failed to take any action to restrain the 6th respondent from continuing the said illegal acts. Hence, this writ petition. In the counter affidavit filed on behalf of the 3rd respondent it is stated that the licenced premises of the 6th respondent is located in accordance with the Rule 27 of the A.P. Excise (Grant of Licence of Selling by Shop and Conditions of Licence) Rules, 2005. Even, the alleged consumption of liquor in the licenced premises was found to be incorrect. However, keeping in view the allegations made by the writ petitioner, a strict vigilance has been kept on the shop to see that consumption of liquor is not allowed in and around the licenced premises. In the light of the counter affidavit on behalf of the 3rd respondent, no further enquiry is necessary in the writ petition. Accordingly, the statement of the 3rd respondent in the counter affidavit that a strict vigilance has been kept on the shop to see that consumption of liquor is not allowed in and around the licenced premises is placed on record and the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the 3rd respondent to take all necessary steps to restrain the 6th respondent from allowing consumption of liquor in the licenced premises or any other acts contrary to licence conditions. There shall be no order as to costs. ___________ G.ROHINI, J Date:19-02-2010 Prv
