The West Bengal High Court dismissed the writ petition filed by property owner Tapan Ganguly challenging the operation of a sweetmeat shop by respondent no. 6 (tenant's son) without proper license. The court held that tenancy and user rights disputes are civil matters requiring approach to civil court rather than writ jurisdiction, and that police authority cannot decide business rights of a tenant's family member. The petitioner was permitted to pursue remedies through the pending Title Suit and approach the Municipal Corporation regarding alleged illegal license issuance. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
