WA 408/2010 BEFORE HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE MR. MADAN B. LOKUR HON’BLE MR.JUSTICE PK MUSAHARY The appellant is aggrieved by an order dated 3.11.2010 passed by a learned Singl e Judge in WP(C) No.5742/2010. The appellant had been granted a licence under Rule 51 of the Assam Motor Vehicl e Rules, 2003. The licensee was to act as a Collecting Agent/Forwarding and Dist ributing Agent/Collecting/Forwarding and Distributing Agent/Booking Agent at Ten gaguri Bazar under Lahorighat Police Station. The licence was granted to the app ellant on 16th August, 2010 after the authorities were satisfied that the appell ant had completed all the formalities as required by Rule 51 of the Assam Motor Vehicle Rules, 2003. A few days later, respondent No.4 was also granted a similar licence and this wa s sought to be challenged by the appellant. The learned Single Judge considered the matter in its entirety and came to a con clusion that there is no prohibition in the statute that only one licence can be given. In other words, the authorities are entitled to give more than one licen ce as long as the requirements of the statute are complied with. For this reason , the learned Single Judge declined to entertain the writ petition on the ground that there is no prohibition in law to grant more than one licence to function as an agent. We have gone through the provisions of Rule 51 of the Assam Motor Vehicle Rules, 2003 as well as Section 93 of the Motor Vehicle Act, 1988. We find no provision restricting the number of licences to only one. Under these circumstances, we are not inclined to interfere with the order of th e learned Single Judge. There is no merit in this appeal. It is accordingly dismissed.
