The petitioner is aggrieved by the order dated 16.06.1999 (Annexure-3) passed by the respondent Sub-Divisional Officer, Biharsharif, Nalanda, whereby the licence of the petitioner issued for running Public Distribution System Shop has been cancelled. The petitioner is also aggrieved by the appellate order dated 22.06.2010 (Annexure-5) passed by the District Magistrate, Nalanda, whereby the appeal preferred by the petitioner has been dismissed and the order passed by the licensing authority has been affirmed.

Indisputably, the petitioner's licence for the Public Distribution System Shop was cancelled way back on 16.06.1999. As per the findings of the learned S.D.O., the petitioner was engaged in black-marketing of wheat and rice which was supplied for red card holders. The order passed by the licensing authority has been affirmed by the appellate authority by a reasoned and

Patna High Court CWJC No.16945 of 2010 (4) dt.13-04-2015 speaking order.

Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner has not been able to point out violation of any rules or provision of law. Only by raising issues of facts, he has tried to assail the impugned orders.

In the aforesaid background, this Court does not find any good ground to interfere with the impugned orders as contained in Annexure-3 and 5 passed by the original authority as also the appellate authority.

Consequently, the present writ petition has to fail and is, accordingly, dismissed, but there shall be no order as to costs. (Birendra Prasad Verma, J) Arvind/- U
