P.N.SANTHOSH THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 12/10/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: Mn ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ``````````````````````````````````````````````````````` W.P.(C) No. 31215 of 2010 B ``````````````````````````````````````````````````````` Dated this the 12th day of October, 2010 J U D G M E N T Petitioner states that he was holding yearly explosive licence which was being renewed every year. Petitioner refers to Ext.P5 to support his plea. During 2010, seeking renewal of the licence, petitioner made Ext.P4 application. Orders have not been passed on Ext.P4. Therefore, petitioner submitted Ext.P8 representation before the first respondent. Even thereafter, there was no progress. Petitioner states that the Circle Inspector of Police and Assistant Divisional Officer, Fire and Rescue Services, have already given NOC by Exts.P9 and P10 and, therefore, there is no reason to have delayed orders on Ext.P4. 2. Having regard to the pendency of Ext.P4, without expressing anything on the merits of the claim, I dispose of this writ petition directing the second respondent to pass orders on Ext.P4. This shall be done, as expeditiously as WPC.31215/10 : 2 : possible, at any rate, before 30th of October, 2010. Petitioner to produce a copy of this judgment and writ petition before the second respondent for compliance. Sd/- (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) aks // True Copy // P.A. To Judge
