JUDGMENT

Non-consideration of the petitioner's application for renewal of licence for running a saw mill by the respondent Panchayat is the cause of action in this writ petition. 2.

The petitioner is aggrieved by the refusal of expansion and non-renewal of licence by the respondent in spite of obtaining statutory clearance from the concerned department. According to the petitioner, he has obtained clearance from the Pollution Control Board, Health, Fire, Forest etc. There is no further requirement for statutory renewal. The petitioner points out that the denial on the part of respondents 1 and 2 in renewing the licence is without any valid reason.

3.

When the matter was taken up for hearing, the learned counsel for the petitioner invited my attention to the ratio of the decision laid down by this Court in W.P.(C)

W.P.(C) No. 15261 of 2015 -2No.15120 of 2015, which covers a similar situation. In the light of the above, this writ petition is disposed of on the same line applying the ratio laid down by this Court in the aforesaid case.
