of <h1>Court criticizes respondents for delays in filing counter-affidavit challenging flower import ban, imposes cost, grants final opportunity.</h1> <h3>FRESH FRUIT FLOWERS AND VEGETABLES TRADERS ASSOCIATION Versus DIRECTORATE GENERAL OF FOREIGN TRADE & ANR.</h3> FRESH FRUIT FLOWERS AND VEGETABLES TRADERS ASSOCIATION Versus DIRECTORATE GENERAL OF FOREIGN TRADE & ANR. - TMI Issues:Challenge to ban on imports of cut-flowers, Delay in filing counter-affidavit, Urgency due to perishable nature of goodsAnalysis:The petition challenges an order and notification imposing a ban on importing cut-flowers through all airports except Chennai, alleging violation of constitutional articles. The petitioner, a flower trader, argues that the ban severely affects business due to perishable nature of goods. Despite multiple adjournments, the respondents have not filed a counter-affidavit, causing further delays. The court notes the urgency of the matter given the perishable nature of cut-flowers and criticizes the respondents for their casual approach. Granting a final opportunity, the court orders the respondents to file the counter-affidavit by a specified date, subject to a cost of Rs. 10,000. The respondents may seek waiver of the cost upon filing the affidavit. The case is listed for further proceedings on the specified date.
