(Order of the Court was made by N.SATHISH KUMAR, J.)
This writ petition has been filed to forbear the official respondent from granting FL2 license to the fourth respondent club without considering the objections submitted by the petitioner and other residents.
2.The main grievance of the writ petitioner is that he has given objections to grant FL2 license to the fourth respondent club. As per Rule 19(A) of the Tamil Nadu Liquor (Licence and Permit) Rules, 1981, before granting license, the licensing authority should satisfy himself that the local needs justify the grant of the licence and that the public interest shall not suffer. In this regard the petitioner has also given objections, which has not been considered by the official respondents.
Hence, the writ petition.
3.The learned Additional Government Pleader appearing for the official respondents, on instructions, would submit that the objections of the petitioner will be considered before issuing any license.
