No

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR W.P. NO. 24110 of 2015 ORDER:

Heard both sides.

The petitioners are aggrieved by the order passed by the first respondent under proceedings dated 14.7.2015. The petitioners have questioned the said order in the writ petition on various grounds and in my view, many of the grounds are factual in nature. Hence it is just and appropriate that the petitioners can avail the appeal remedy available to them under clause No. 8.9 (1) under Chapter 8 of the Marketing Discipline Guidelines, 2012 of the respondent-Corporation, as the appellate authority can more appropriately examine and appreciate the contentions raised by the petitioners on factual aspects. The learned counsel for the petitioners has also fairly submitted that the petitioners may be granted liberty to file an appeal against the impugned order before the appellate authority. Liberty is granted. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. Miscellaneous applications, if any, shall stand closed. No order as to costs.
