                 ==================
                   W.P(C)No.31154 of 2008
                 ==================
       Dated this the 10th day of November, 2008.

                       J U D G M E N T

The petitioner challenges Ext.P11 order of the Panchayat,

by which the application for renewal of licence submitted by

the petitioner has been rejected. Since the petitioner has an

effective alternate remedy by way of appeal against Ext.P11

order as provided in the Kerala Panchayat Raj Act against the

impugned order, I am not inclined to entertain this writ

petition at this stage.

Accordingly, without prejudice to the right of the

petitioner to challenge Ext.P11 in a properly constituted appeal

as provided in the Kerala Panchayat Raj Act, this writ petition

is dismissed.

S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE
