ORDER
(Order of the Court was made by the Hon'ble Chief Justice) This writ petition has been filed for the second time without an order being passed for sanction of opening of the Tasmac outlet at the proposed site. Another prayer has also been made for cancellation of licence.
2. Learned counsel appearing for the Tasmac submits that the proposal has not yet been finalised in terms of the grant of licence for the location as alleged by the petitioner, thus, the petition is premature. The learned State Government Pleader otherwise submits that they would not allocated the site for opening of a Tasmac outlet in contravention of the Rules, yet, writ petitions are being filed.
3. Taking note of the fact that no order has been passed by the respondents regarding licence and opening of the Tasmac shop on the location alleged by the petitioner, the writ petition is premature and is, accordingly, dismissed. No costs. Sd/- Assistant Registrar(CS-V) //True Copy// Sub Assistant Registrar sra To:
