Allahabad High Court

M/S BRAHHM ARPAN ORGANIC PRIVATE LIMITEDversusSTATE OF UTTAR PRADESH AND 2 OTHERS

Decided

Holding

The writ petition is not maintainable and the petitioner is directed to file a revision under Section 32 of the Uttar Pradesh Krishi Utpadan Mandi Adhiniyam, 1964.

Summary

M/s Brahhm Arpan Organic Private Ltd filed a writ petition challenging an order of the State of Uttar Pradesh, alleging it was maintainable. Respondent No.3 argued that the petitioner had an efficacious remedy under Section 32 of the Uttar Pradesh Krishi Utpadan Mandi Adhiniyam, 1964, and therefore the writ petition should be dismissed. The petitioner did not contest this point and agreed that the matter could be decided through a revision petition. The Court held that the writ petition was not maintainable and directed the petitioner to file a revision within two weeks, which must be decided within three months of filing. Consequently, the writ petition was disposed of, granting liberty to pursue the appropriate revision remedy.

Issues considered

  • Whether the writ petition is maintainable when a revision remedy under Section 32 of the Uttar Pradesh Krishi Utpadan Mandi Adhiniyam, 1964 is available.
  • Whether the petitioner should be directed to file a revision instead of proceeding with the writ petition.
