IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.2140 of 2009 NARESH PRASAD SAH Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ANR ----------- 2. 12.2.2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and the counsel for the State. On the own showing of the petitioner, the remedy of appeal against the impugned order of cancellation of licence under the Public Distribution System is definitely available under Clause 28 of the Unification Order before the Collector of the District. The apprehension of the petitioner that though there is statutory alternative remedy by way of appeal but since the Collector of Bhagalpur district does not find time to dispose of such appeal cannot be a ground to circumvent the statutory remedy. This Court, therefore, would permit the petitioner to withdraw this application with a liberty to file an appeal within a period of one month from today and in the event such an appeal is filed the Collector of Bhagalpur district must see to it that 2 the appeal in question is disposed of in next three months from the date of filing of the appeal.
