ORDER
Date : 08.05.2026
Mr. B. Gogoi, the learned Additional Advocate General who is also the Standing counsel of the Health and Family Welfare Department submitted that the instant writ petition has become infructuous taking into account that the registration of the Petitioner’s pharmacy license has already been cancelled vide a notification dated 15.06.2023.
2. The learned Additional Advocate General for the Respondents further submitted that without a challenge to the said notification dated 15.06.2023, this Court may not like to entertain the instant writ petition.
3. This Court has duly perused the notification dated 15.06.2023 which is kept on record and marked with the letter “X”. A copy of the said notification was also handed over to the learned counsel for the Petitioner along with the cancellation notice which was issued to the Petitioner dated 04.05.2023. It is the opinion of this Court that without there being a challenge to the said cancellation of the Petitioner’s pharmacy license, no effective directions can be passed in the instant proceedings.
4. Accordingly, the writ petition stands dismissed without prejudice to the Petitioner to assail the notification dated 15.06.2023, if so advised.
