THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.RAMULU W.P.No.17470 of 2006 Dated: 25.08.2006 Between G.Srinivas …..Petitioner and 1.The District Collector, (C.S) Medak District at Sangareddy and another. ….Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.RAMULU W.P.No.17470 of 2006 ORDER: It appears that the petitioner while holding authorization of dealership for the fair price shop No.2, Toopran village ventured to file nomination for the post of Sarpanch of the village. In that process, he resigned from the dealership and requested the Revenue Divisional Officer to communicate the acceptance of the same immediately to the Election Officer. Though his resignation was accepted, it was not communicated to the Election Officer in time. Therefore his nomination was rejected. Having lost both, now the petitioner wants to revive his dealership. In this regard, it seems that he submitted two representations i.e., to the Revenue Divisional Officer and an appeal before the Joint Collector stating that though his resignation was accepted, it was not communicated to the Election Officer in time. Therefore, he was unable to contest the election and ultimately, he lost the dealership. In view of the above, the Joint Collector is directed to consider the appeal filed before him. The Joint Collector may also examine as to whether the acceptance of resignation was not communicated to the Election Officer in time and whether it was the only ground on which his nomination was rejected and pass appropriate orders within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Writ petition is disposed of accordingly. No costs. __________ 25.08.2006 Note: Despatch the order within two days. (B.O) rkk
