Heard the learned counsel for the Petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Prohibition and Excise appearing for the Respondents. 3. On perusal of the affidavit filed in support of the Writ Petition, it appears that the Respondent No. 6 approached the Respondent Authorities to allow him to relocate his A.4 licensed shop near to the shop of the Petitioner. 4. The grievance of the Petitioner is that if the Respondent No.6 is permitted to relocate his shop to the new proposed premises, which is near to the shop of the Petitioner, the Petitioner would suffer irreparable financial loss and it would disrupt his business, and 4 therefore, the present Writ Petition is filed seeking a direction to the Respondent Authorities not to permit the Respondent No.6 to relocate the premises nearer to the shop of the Petitioner without considering the representation of the Petitioner dated 10.09.2025. 5. By that as it may, the Respondent No.2 vide Proceedings dated 28.11.2025 had rejected the request of the unofficial respondent/R.6 stating that it is not feasible to permit her to relocate the premises to the new proposed premises, which is nearer to the A4 shop of the Petitioner, and as the grievance of the Petitioner is redressed by the Respondent No. 2, the cause in the Writ Petition became infructuous. 6. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is dismissed as infructuous. There shall be no order as to costs. As a sequel thereto, miscellaneous petitions pending, if any shall stand closed. __________________________________ JUSTICE TARLADA RAJASEKHAR RAO Date: 02.12.2025 eha 5 THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE TARLADA RAJASEKHAR RAO WRIT PETITION No.24843 of 2025 Date: 02.12.2025 eha
