IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.2451 of 2009 ***** 1. Pravu Nandan Singh, S/o Shri Hari Charan Singh, R/o Vill.-Motipur, P.S. Tejpur, District- Samastipur. 2. Suresh Rai, S/o Late Jogindra Rai, R/o Vill.-Motipur, P.S. Tejpur, District-Samastipur. …. …. Petitioners Versus 1. The State of Bihar through the Secretary Home Department, Government of Bihar, Old Secretariat, Patna. 2. The District Magistrate, Samastipur. 3. The District Arms Officer, Samastipur. 4. The Superintendent of Police, Samastipur. …. …. Respondents ----------- 2. 24.2.2009. Petitioners want a direction upon the respondents to renew their arms licence, namely, 4644/NL/DMR and 4641/NL/DMR. Their grievance is that no doubt the licence in question was issued by the District Magistrate of Dimapur, Nagaland but since these petitioners are now permanent residents of Samastipur their request for renewal should be considered and decided one way or the other. Without expressing any opinion on the merits of the claim of these two petitioners for such a renewal from the district authority of Samastipur, looking at the time span when the request has been made, the Court disposes of the writ application with a direction upon the respondent District Magistrate to do the needful within a period of six months from the date of communication/production of a copy of this order. This writ application is disposed of with above direction. Pawan/- (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
