1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH : NAGPUR WRIT PETITION NO. 361 OF 2010 (Santosh Gangaram Kanadje vs. State of Maharashtra & Ors.) Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's orders Court's or Judge's orders or directions and Registrar's orders. CORAM : B.P. DHARMADHIKARI, J. FEBRUARY 23, 2010. Heard Shri Puri, learned counsel for the petitioner, Shri Kothari, learned AGP for respondents No. 1 to 3 and Shri Chaware, Advocate holding for Shri Kalwaghe, learned counsel for the intervenor. In the interest of justice, prayer for intervention is allowed. In spite of earlier orders of this Court in Writ Petition No. 3676 of 2009 dated 07.009.2009, the impugned order dated 11.01.2010 suffers from same vice. The learned AGP was, therefore, directed to find out why this is happening. The learned AGP has shown to Court the instructions received by him and fairly admitted that the omission to specify time limit has not been explained by the authorities. It is apparent that in view of the earlier order of this Court dated 07.09.2009, the impugned order dated 11.01.2010 is unsustainable. Shri Chaware, learned counsel contends that the intervenor cannot be made to suffer for such error by 2 the authorities and action was initiated on his complaints. Shri Puri, learned counsel revealed that he is rival in trade and due to closure of petitioner’s shop, ration cards/ units therein are attached to the shop of intervenor in present matter. In the circumstances, impugned order dated 11.01.2010 is quashed and set aside. The respondents are at liberty to take note of complaints, if any, against the petitioner in accordance with law. The shop of the petitioner remained closed from 15.01.2008 till today. This is in spite of the order dated 07.09.2009 mentioned above. The office of Respondent No. 3 shall, therefore, pay cost of Rs.2,000/- to present petitioner. Writ Petition is disposed of. Rule accordingly. JUDGE *GS.
