His only submission is in view of the stand taken by the EDMC in the counter affidavit in para 11 (at running page 104), the case of the petitioner for renewal may be considered keeping in view the judgment of this Court in W.P. (C) 7621/2017 titled as Nazim Hussain & Ors. vs. EDMC. The learned counsel for the respondents state that the respondents have already said in para 11 that the case of the petitioner for renewal of the Meat Trade License shall be decided as per the directions of this Court in the aforesaid writ petition.
