Issues: Whether, after the cancellation order had been set aside in appeal and fresh consideration was pending, the licensing authority was required to consider the petitioner's application to run the liquor shop and pass an appropriate order expeditiously.
Analysis: The cancellation of the licence was no longer in force because the appellate authority had set aside that order and remanded the matter for fresh decision. In that situation, there was no justification to keep the petitioner's application unattended. The court directed the licensing authority to consider the application dated 26.07.2017 along with the fresh order to be passed pursuant to remand, and to do so in accordance with law within a short time.
Conclusion: The issue was answered in favour of the petitioner, and the licensing authority was required to decide the matter expeditiously.
Final Conclusion: The writ petition was disposed of with a mandatory direction for prompt administrative consideration of the petitioner's request and the remanded proceedings.
Ratio Decidendi: Once an order cancelling a licence has been set aside in appeal and no fresh adverse order has yet been passed on remand, the authority cannot withhold consideration of the licence-holder's request and must act promptly in accordance with law.
