HONOURABLE MS. JUSTICE G.ROHINI WRIT PETITION No.14666 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioner herein was appointed as temporary fair price shop dealer of shop No.73 of Kurnool City, in the vacancy created on suspension of the authorisation of the permanent dealer-the 5th respondent herein on the ground that he was involved in a criminal case. However, on completion of enquiry, the 3rd respondent by order dated 04/03/2009 while holding that the charges against the 5th respondent were not sustainable, revoked the suspension order and restored the authorization of the 5th respondent. Consequently, the petitioner’s temporary dealership was terminated. Challenging the said order, the petitioner preferred an appeal before the 2nd respondent and pending the said appeal, the petitioner was continued as a temporary dealer, by virtue of an interim order passed by this Court in W.P.No.6544 of 2009. While so, by order dated 10/09/2009, the petitioner’s authorization was suspended pending enquiry into alleged variation in stocks in the fair price shop. Aggrieved by the same, the petitioner preferred an appeal, which was dismissed by the 2nd respondent by order dated 26/02/2010. The said order is under challenge in the present writ petition. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner. The learned Government Pleader for Civil Supplies appearing for the respondent Nos.1 to 4 at the outset submitted that against the impugned order, a revision lies to the 1st first respondent and that the petitioner has already preferred a revision petition before the 1st respondent. The fact that the revision is pending before the 1st respondent has not been disputed by the learned counsel for the petitioner. In the circumstances, the interference by this Court at this stage is unwarranted. Hence, I am not inclined to entertain the writ petition. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the 1st first respondent to dispose of the revision petition pending on his file after giving an opportunity of hearing to the petitioner as well as the 5th respondent and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law. No costs. _______________ JUSTICE G.ROHINI 29th June, 2010 SKM
