This judgment in the centre: on the left the decisions it cites, on the right the decisions citing it. Colour is the treatment; choose a decision to open it.
1. This writ petition is listed in top of the list for final hearing. However, counsel for the petitioner is not present.
2. The Court finds that it is a case where the petitioner was granted an arms licence with the intention of purchasing a firearm but has failed to purchase the arm since 2005.
3. As rightly pointed out by Sri T. S. Chaudhary, learned standing counsel that at this belated stage the existing rules do not permit the grant of permission to purchase a firearm under the circumstances of the present case.
4. However, in case the petitioner applies for a fresh fire arm licence, the same may be considered by the competent authority in accordance with law.
5. With the aforesaid observations, this writ petition is disposed of. (Saurabh Shyam Shamshery,J.) November 2, 2026 Ashok Gupta Versus Counsel for Petitioner(s) : Ziya Uddin Counsel for Respondent(s) : C.S.C.
