THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION No.14974 OF 2010 Dated: 6.7.2010 Between : K. Thirumalesh .. Petitioner And 1. The Revenue Divisional Officer, Gadwal, Mahaboobnagar District., and another. … Respondents THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION No.14974 OF 2010 ORDER : The petitioner’s authorization as a dealer of the fair price shop of Nasnoor Village, Waddepally Mandal, Mahaboobnagar District was cancelled vide proceedings of the 1st respondent dated 17.6.2010. Aggrieved by the same, the present writ petition is filed. Heard the learned counsel for both parties and perused the material available on record. It is not in dispute that a show-cause notice dated 22.12.2009 was issued alleging that the petitioner had failed to distribute 584 litres of kerosene to the cardholders and diverted the entire stock to the black market and calling upon him to submit his explanation as to why his authorisation should not be cancelled. The petitioner submitted a detailed explanation on 26.12.2009 denying the allegations and also enclosing Distribution Register containing the signatures of all the cardholders to substantiate his claim that the allegations made against him were unfounded. However, without considering the petitioner’s explanation, the impugned order came to be passed merely on the basis of the report received from the Deputy Tahsildar (Enforcement), Gadwal. Moreover the impugned order does not contain any reasons in support of the conclusion that the charge against the petitioner was proved. In the circumstances, the impugned order, being violative of the principles of natural justice cannot be sustained and is liable to be set aside on that ground alone. Accordingly the same is hereby set aside and the Writ Petition is disposed of with a direction to the 1st respondent to conduct fresh enquiry on the basis of the explanation dated 26.12.2009 submitted by the petitioner and the material produced including the Distribution Register and pass appropriate orders afresh in accordance with law as expeditiously as possible preferably within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of this order. Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of. No costs. ____________ G. ROHINI, J. Dt. 06.07.2010 Note:- CC in 2 days. (BO) gbs
