The Petitioner herein was originally granted with a FL.3 licence on 19.06.2007, for sale of liquor in their Hotel premises located at No.11/123, Chambala, Gudalur. There were certain complaints in the running of the Bar, from private parties, who have been subsequently impleaded as party Respondents 2 to 4 in this Writ Petition, owing to which, an enquiry came to be conducted, after issuance of a show-cause notice dated 08.08.2007. During the course of enquiry, the first respondent herein had observed that there was no violation of the Provisions of the Tamil Nadu Liquor (License and Permit) Rules. However, since the respondent apprehended that there was a likelihood of Law and Order problem, the Petitioner's licence FL.3 No.15 of 2007-2008 came to be canceled, through an order dated 25.09.2007, which is impugned in this writ petition. When the writ petition came to be admitted by this Court, interim orders were granted, protecting the running of the Bar and now it is brought to the notice of this Court that from the year 2007 - 2008, the licence have been periodically renewed and extended, till date.
