IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.1130 of 2001 SHEO KUMAR SULTANIA Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ANR ----------- For the Petitioner :- M/S. N. K. Agrawal, Sr. Advocate, D. N. Tiwari & Saket Tiwary. For the State :- Mr. K. P. Gupta, S.C. V. ------ 7 13/04/2010 Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State, the present position which emerges is that the law has undergone a change. Now no license is required for dealing with edible oil. In view of the current legal position, cancellation of license of the petitioner under the provisions of the Bihar Trade Articles (Licenses Unification) Order 1984 passed by the Collector, Begusarai on 14.12.2000 has no meaning and the issue raised in the writ application has remained only academic. The writ application, therefore, has become infructuous to that extent due to the subsequent evolution of law. If the law undergoes a change in future, the present cancellation will not come in the way. - 2 - This writ application is disposed of with the above observation. AMIN (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
