But the licence may, from time to time, be renewed if the conduct of the licensee is not otherwise objectionable. (2) Where the misconduct of a licensee is likely to disturb public peace and if there are sufficient reasons to suspect that a non-mulki dancing girl is indulging more in prostitution than in her main occupation, the authority competent to grant licence, may, cancel the licence before the expiry of its term.
