2.According to the petitioner, based on the report submitted by the fourth respondent, the first respondent passed an order dated 19.02.2020 directing the petitioner to stop production, sale or distribution of drugs under Rule 85(2) of the Drugs and Cosmetics Rules. Challenging the same, they preferred a writ petition in WP.No.5675 of 2020, in which, this Court by order dated 09.03.2020, directed the petitioner to comply with the conditions as pointed out by the respondents. Accordingly, the petitioner complied with the entire conditions and submitted a detailed explanation along with supporting documents to the first respondent on 18.03.2020. However, there was no action with respect to the claim of the petitioner. Hence, they submitted a representation dated 02.06.2020 to the respondents seeking permission to manufacture the drugs and the same is pending without any consideration. Therefore, this writ petition.
