The point raised by learned counsel for the petitioner in<\/p>\n<p>                   this writ petition is that a punishment of suspension of licence has<\/p>\n<p>                   already been given to him and hence for the same offence another<\/p>\n<p>                   punishment of cancellation of his licence cannot be legally given to<\/p>\n<p>                   him by the authority concerned in view of the provisions of the<\/p>\n<p>                   Central Government Public Distribution System (Control) Order,<\/p>\n<p>                   2001 ( hereinafter referred to as `the Central Control Order of 2001&#8242;<\/p>\n<p>                   for the sake of brevity ) followed by the Government of Bihar, Food<\/p>\n<p>                   Supply &amp; Commerce Department Public Distribution System<\/p>\n<p>                   (Control) Order, 2001, notified vide G.S.R. 1 dated 20.02.2007<\/p>\n<p>                   (hereinafter referred to as `the Bihar Control Order of 2001 for the<\/p>\n<p>                   sake of brevity).\n<\/p>\n<p>                              3. On the other hand, learned counsel for the respondents<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                       2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>vehemently opposed the contention of learned counsel for the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner and stated that the licence was granted to the petitioner<\/p>\n<p>under the Bihar Trade Articles (Licences Unification) Order, 1984<\/p>\n<p>(hereinafter referred to as `the Bihar Licensing Order of 1984&#8242; for<\/p>\n<p>the sake of brevity) and hence the action for suspension\/cancellation<\/p>\n<p>of such licence would be governed only by its provisions. Relying<\/p>\n<p>upon Clause 11 of the Bihar Licensing Order of 1984, it was<\/p>\n<p>claimed that the suspension of licence of the petitioner was merely<\/p>\n<p>interim measures during the proceeding for cancellation of such<\/p>\n<p>licence and hence there was no bar in cancelling the licence of a<\/p>\n<p>licensee, which had already been suspended. He further claimed that<\/p>\n<p>the Bihar Licensing Order of 1984 was concerned with the licensing<\/p>\n<p>matter, whereas, Central Control Order of 2001 and Bihar Control<\/p>\n<p>Order of 2001 were with respect to Public Distribution System and<\/p>\n<p>the latter cannot legally govern the former. Learned counsel for the<\/p>\n<p>respondents also relied upon a decision of the Single Bench of this<\/p>\n<p>Court in case of Punsraj Begawani &amp; another vs. The State of Bihar<\/p>\n<p>&amp; another, reported in 1987 P.L.J.R. 1150. Finally learned counsel<\/p>\n<p>for the respondents stated that the statutory appeal has been<\/p>\n<p>provided under Clause 28 of the Bihar Licensing Order of 1984 as<\/p>\n<p>well as under Clause 15 of the Bihar Control Order of 2001 and<\/p>\n<p>hence this writ petition is not maintainable on that score also.<\/p>\n<p>         4. Similar matters have been considered vide order dated<\/p>\n<p>14.07.2010 by this Court in a batch of cases in case of Pradhuman<\/p>\n<p>Chaudhary vs. The State of Bihar &amp; Ors. (C.W.J.C. No. 6966 of<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                       3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>2008) and analogous cases, in which it has been specifically held<\/p>\n<p>that after coming into force of the Bihar Control Order of 2001, the<\/p>\n<p>provisions of the Bihar Licensing Order of 1984 would not be<\/p>\n<p>applicable to the fair price shops under the Public Distribution<\/p>\n<p>System and for all practical purposes, the provisions of the Bihar<\/p>\n<p>Control Order of 2001 would be applicable. It has also been held<\/p>\n<p>that after coming into force of the Bihar Control Order of 2001 it<\/p>\n<p>was for the authorities to select either to suspend the licence of the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner or to cancel it at the very initial stage. Once the<\/p>\n<p>punishment of suspension had been chosen by the authority for the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner, there was no occasion or jurisdiction for him to pass any<\/p>\n<p>further order of punishment for the same offence against the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner, namely cancellation. Thus the impugned orders of the<\/p>\n<p>respondent-authority canceling licence of the petitioner after 2007<\/p>\n<p>apart from being illegal and perverse, is also absolutely without<\/p>\n<p>jurisdiction and hence it cannot be legally allowed to stand.<\/p>\n<p>         5. In the light of the aforesaid special circumstances as<\/p>\n<p>well as the aforesaid decision of this Court and the specific<\/p>\n<p>provisions of law as discussed above, the order of the respondent-<\/p>\n<p>authority cancelling licence of the petitioner, which is under<\/p>\n<p>challenge in the above-mentioned writ petition, is hereby quashed. It<\/p>\n<p>is further directed that the order of the authority regarding<\/p>\n<p>suspension of the licence of the petitioner would be limited to ninety<\/p>\n<p>days only from the date of suspension, whereafter the order of<\/p>\n<p>suspension of the licence of the petitioner would cease to have any<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>        legal effect.\n<\/p>\n<p>                   6. With the aforesaid directions\/observations,   the writ<\/p>\n<p>        petition is allowed.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<pre>Sujit                                                          (S.N.Hussain,J.)\n <\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Patna High Court &#8211; Orders Pasupati Nath Sah vs The State Of Bihar &amp;Amp; Ors on 30 September, 2010 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.7811 of 2010 PASUPATI NATH SAH, S\/O LATE GIRJA SAH, R\/O VILL.- KHAGRAUNI, PANCHAYAT- BAGHAUNA, P.S.- HUSSAINGANJ, DISTT.- SIWAN &#8230;&#8230;..
