P.Thananjayan vs The Deputy Commissioner (Excise) on 9 October, 2020
11. The decision of the Hon’ble Division Bench in the case of
Mr.R.Sarveswaran Vs. Union of Territiory of Puducherry and two others (W.P.
No.13483 of 2007 dated 13.06.2019) is also of no assistance to the petitioner,
since in that case the Bench was considering of a prayer for Mandamus
forbearing the respondents from establishing or re-locating or granting a
licence for the setting up of a liquor shop in a particular area of Pondicherry,
specifically in the light of the guidelines of the Supreme Court dated
15.12.2016 for establishing or running of liquor shops on national and state
highways and the facts are not apposite to the matter on hand.
