Date : 23-03-2022 Heard Mr. Binay Kumar, learned advocate for the

petitioner and Mr. Upendra Pratap Singh for the State.

The license of the petitioner has been cancelled and it is

the contention of the petitioner that the explanation offered by him

before the Licensing Authority has not at all been adverted to.

We do not find such statement to be correct.

Nonetheless, we are of the view that the petitioner ought to get an

opportunity of challenging the order passed by the Licensing

Officer.
