Denny Solomon v. The Executive Officer

O R D E R Heard the learned Senior Counsel appearing for the petitioner and the learned Government Advocate appearing for the respondents. This Court also heard the learned counsel appearing for the intervenor.

¶2The petitioner wants to setup the petition mentioned manufacturing unit. However, the learned counsel appearing for the intervenor voiced strong objections. It is stated that the writ petition had already been filed for forbearing the authorities from granting permission to the petitioner herein.

¶3The learned Standing Counsel submitted that the petitioner's request is to be placed for consideration of the council, whose meeting is to be held shortly.

¶4The intervenors are none other than the members of the council and therefore, they will definitely have a say when the matter is being deliberated. The first respondent is directed to take a call on the petitioner's application within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. I make it clear that I have not gone into the merits of the matter.

¶5Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs.
