Turning down the plea of the petitioner Mahesh Chand Goyal, a division bench comprising Justices Vikramjit Sen and A.K. Pathak said, “To permit a person to make a bid
for a barber shop and thereafter run a restaurant would be doing violence to the town planners scheme of things. It would also force residents of the area to travel distances to other markets in order to avail of services which were intended to be available in the local area.”
