During pendency of the process for issuance of NOC, the respondents have come out with the amended departmental procedure/guidelines/policy, 2025 for establishment and operation of Animal Husbandry Diploma Institutions. The petitioner cannot claim consideration of its application submitted under the Policy of 2022 as a matter of right and to claim NOC.

After commencement of the new Policy of 2025, the petitioner is always free to make a fresh application as per entitlement under the new policy. In view of the above, the Court finds no merit in this writ petition hence, the same is dismissed. 6.
