Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GODA RAGHURAM W.P.No.4635 of 2006 Oral order: Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Excise. The petitioner is an Excise Licensee in Yanam and in Pondicherry State. For vending liquor in Yanam, he purchases the commodity from several parts of the country and transports the same to Yanam. He obtained permission from the relevant Excise Authorities in Yanam to transport Beer and Liquor, purchased in Pondichery for his business in Yanam. For effectuating this license and as the commodities purchased by the petitioner in Pondichery State have to be transported to Yanam through the territory of the State of Andhra Pradesh, he applied to the Excise Authorities in the State of Andhra Pradesh, in particular the 1st respondent on 06-03-2006 seeking Through Transport Permits (for short ‘TTPs.’). The petitioner’s complaint is that his application for TTPs has not yet been disposed of by the 1st respondent. In similar circumstances, a learned Single Judge of this Court, by the order dated 20-08-2005 in W.P.No. 18342 of 2005 disposed of the said writ petition directing the Commissioner of Prohibition and Excise, Hyderabad to consider the petitioner’s application within a week. Learned Government Pleader for Excise concedes that the same decision covers the present situation also. In the circumstances, the writ petition is disposed of directing the 1st respondent to consider and dispose of the petitioner’s application for Through Transport Permits expeditiously and in any event by 23-03-2006. The order of the 1st respondent in this regard shall be communicated to the petitioner by 23-03-2006.
