Gaikwad RD 1/2

(35)APPANo.7392018 I heard the learned Advocates appearing for the parties.

Though the prayer made by the applicant is exhaustive, such prayer cannot be granted. It is for the Passport Authority to decide the duration for which, it wants to issue the passport to the applicant/convicted accused considering the relevant Rules and Notifications. Similarly, blanket permission to travel abroad as and when required cannot be granted. The application is disposed of with a direction to the Passport Authority to issue passport to the applicant/accused as per its own Rules. The applicant may apply for permission to travel abroad as and when necessity arises.
