BINDKI AUTO MOBILES Vs. DISTRICT MAGISTRATE FATEHPUR

JUDGEMENT

(1.) -Heard learned counsel for the parties.

(2.) PETITIONERS are challenging the suspension order dated 28.8.2002, Annexure-3 to the petition, by which the petitioners' diesel licence has been suspended.

(3.) HOWEVER, in view of Clause 8 of the U. P. High Speed Diesel Oil and Light Diesel Oil (Maintenance, Supply and Distribution) Order, 1981, the life of a suspension order can only be for three weeks. Since after passing of the order of suspension dated 28.8.2002 the period of three weeks will expire on 18.9.2002, hence the petitioners can start operating their outlet from 18.9.2002 subject to the final decision in the enquiry proceeding against the petitioners. As regards the other pleas taken in this writ, the petitioners can raise them during the hearing before the enquiry authority.
