( 1 ) IN this Writ Petition a question of general importance and frequent occurrence is raised by Sri K. Manikyal Rao, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner, the question being whether the second proviso to Rule 9-B (c) of the A. P. Cinemas (Regulation) Rules, 1970, can be invoked in aid by an applicant for grant of permission to construct a cinema building when he furnishes false particulars or information in the application made by him to the licensing authority in Form A-I, which, when brought to the notice of the licensing authority, necessitates an enquiry into the truth or otherwise of the same, completion of which may exceed three months time. In view of the importance of the question raised, I am of the opinion that this Writ Petition shall be heard by a Division Bench as there is no authoritative pronouncement on the question raised. Place the papers before the honourable the Chief Justice for appropriate orders of posting at an early date.
