ORDER
12.07.2022
Heard Shri P Deka, learned counsel for the petitioners, who are aggrieved by a
notice dated 30.06.2022 issued by the Executive Officer, Sonari Municipal Board by
which the business of selling of beef is completely prohibited from the Municipal area
from 15.07.2022 as per Section 8 of the Assam Cattle Preservation Act, 2021.
The learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the business of the
petitioners has been going on since the days of their forefathers in the said area and
the Act in question also does not contemplate a complete ban and only prescribes a
procedure for the said business. The competency of the Executive Officer in issuing
the said notice dated 30.06.2022 has also been questioned by drawing the attention
of this Court to the Act in question which prescribes that the Government should
appoint an appropriate authority which has not been done in the instant case. It is
further contended that without completing the formalities prescribed under the Act in
question which would include allotment of an appropriate site to carry out the
business, complete ban is not contemplated as that would amount to infringing the
right to carry out the business.
Issue Notice, returnable by 25.07.2022.
Shri RK Borah, learned State Counsel, Assam accepts notice on behalf of all the
respondents.
Page No.# 3/3
Extra copies of the writ petition be served upon Shri Borah during the course of
the day.
Since, there is a prayer for interim order, the learned State Counsel is directed to
obtain instructions on the next date which should include the steps/measures taken to
allocate appropriate steps taken so that the petitioners can carry out their business as
per the Act in question.
Accordingly, list this case on 25.07.2022.
