IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.3002 of 2009 GHANSHYAM PASWAN Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2 5.3.2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State. The grievance of the petitioner as against the impugned order dated 4.7.2008 with regard to continuation of the order of suspension of licence under Bihar Trade Article (Licences Unification) Order, 1984 seems to be wholly genuine and justified. It is the mandate of law that such order of suspension can be continued only for a period of three months and shall cease to operate after expiry of the said period. That being so, this Court would hold that as the life of Annexure-2, an order of suspension of licence, has already come to an end, the petitioner becomes entitled to the privilege of the licence. It is, however, made clear that if any action is taken for cancellation of licence of the petitioner, the same shall not be affected in any manner on account of nullifying the impugned order of suspension. With the aforementioned observations, this application is disposed of. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
