Respondent/s ====================================================== Appearance : For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Ajit Kumar Mr. Rajesh Kumar Sinha For the Respondent/s : Mr. (Gp9) ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE JUSTICE SMT. SHEEMA ALI KHAN ORAL ORDER (Per: HONOURABLE JUSTICE SMT. SHEEMA ALI KHAN) 3 21-10-2011 The petitioner’s license has been suspended/ cancelled on the ground that she was not selected by the District Selection Committee. The license was issued in the year 2007 and the order that the selection of the Public Distribution System Dealer should be made by the District Selection Committee came much after the grant of license to the petitioner. I, therefore, find that there is no justification in the cancellation of the license of the petitioner on the aforesaid ground. The petitioner is directed to apply before the District Patna High Court CWJC No.3094 of 2008 (3) dt.21-10-2011 2 / 2 2 Magistrate, Araria who will forward the application within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of the application to the District Selection Committee. The District Selection Committee may consider the fact that the petitioner was earlier granted a license and there is no allegation against her regarding anomalies committed as a Public Distribution System Dealer and pass an appropriate order within a period of four months from the date of receipt of the recommendation from the District Magistrate, Araria. The petitioner is directed to produce a copy of this along with her application for grant of license before the District Magistrate, Araria within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. This writ application is disposed of with the aforesaid observations and directions. Prabhakar Anand/- (Sheema Ali Khan, J)
