JUDGMENT
When this Writ Petition came up for admission, learned
Government Pleader pointed out that the subject matter of this Writ
Petition is similar to the subject matter in W.P.C.No.8437/08 which I
disposed of on 12.3.2008 at the admission stage itself. I have called
for the records relating to W.P.C.No.8437/08. In view of my
judgment in W.P.C.No.8437/08, I am not inclined to entertain this
Writ Petition. However, I dispose of the Writ Petition directing the
Secretary of the 2nd respondent-Panchayat to issue hearing notice to
the petitioner also when he is considering the licence application
submitted by the petitioner in W.P.C.No.8437 of 2008 in response to
that judgment. It is open to the petitioner to urge all the grounds
which he has raised in this Writ Petition before the 2nd respondent. It
is open to the petitioner to point out to the 2nd respondent-Panchayat
that there are other persons who will be affected by the issuance of
licence in favour of the petitioner in W.P.C.No.8437/08 in which case
the Secretary will consider impleading those affected persons as
additional parties.
