Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the respondents submits that an order was passed on 07.09.2015 by the District Magistrate/Licensing Authority, Mathura, and another order was passed on 28.04.2016 by the District Excise Officer, Mathura, against both these orders, petitioners have gone in appeal and the appeal was rejected. Subsequently, the petitioners have filed a revision before the State Government and also filed a stay application therein.
