In support of the appeal, the Government Pleader for Excise has placed reliance on an unreported common judgment dated 09.09.2009 in W.A.Nos.1663 of 2003 and batch (Government of Andhra Pradesh, represented by its Commissioner of Prohibition and Excise, Hyderabad v. T.Anjaiah Goud). He also brought to our notice that in view of the policy change in promoting TCS in twin cities, the relief cannot be granted to the respondents. We find force in the submission which is not seriously disputed by the counsel for the respondents. In view of the above, the writ petition is allowed and the impugned order of the learned Single Judge is set aside. It is always open to the respondents and others, if they are qualified, they can apply for TFT (Tree for Tappers) licence. There shall be no order as to costs. ________________ (V.V.S.
