IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) MONDAY, THE TWENTY EIGTH DAY OF APRIL TWO THOUSAND AND EIGHT PRESENT THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION NO : 9426 of 2008 Between: Smt. V. Sujatha W/o. K. Nagaraju Medapuram Vilalge, C.K. Palli Mandal, Ananthapur District. ..... PETITIONER AND 1 The Mandal Revenue Officer (Tahasildar) C.K. Palli Mandal, Ananthapur District. 2 The Revenue Divisional Officer, Dharmavaram, Ananthapur District. .....RESPONDENTS Counsel for the Petitioner: MR.AKKAM ESHWAR Counsel for the Respondents: GP FOR REVENUE The Court made the following : ORDER: This Writ Petition is filed for a writ of Mandamus to declare the action of the respondents, in suspending the petitioner’s fair price shop dealership in respect of Medapuram Village, C.K.Palli Mandal, Ananthapur District, by proceedings dated 12-03- 2008 of respondent No.1, as illegal and arbitrary. By the impugned order, respondent No.1 suspended the petitioner’s authorization in respect of the aforesaid fair price shop, pending final action. A perusal of the record shows that the petitioner filed an appeal before respondent No.2, questioning the said order. The main grievance of the petitioner is that respondent No.2 has not yet disposed of the said appeal. Having heard the learned Counsel for the petitioner and perused the record, I am of the view that the appeal, said to have been filed by the petitioner before respondent No.2, deserves to be disposed of at an early date because the very period, for which the petitioner’s authorization has been suspended, is limited to 90 days, and if the appeal is not disposed of before expiry of that period, the same is likely to become infructuous. In this view of the matter, the Writ Petition is disposed of with the direction to respondent No.2 to dispose of the appeal, filed against order dated 12- 03-2008 passed by respondent No.1, within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. As a sequel to disposal of the Writ Petition, WPMP.No.12440 of 2008 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. ____________________ (C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J) 28-04-2008 Note: Furnish CC in two days.
