THE HON’BLE Mr. JUSTICE GODA RAGHURAM MONDAY, THE 13th DAY OF FEBRUARY, 2006 W.P.No. 2606 of 2006 Between:- P.L. Rangaiah --Petitioner And The Joint Collector, Ananthapur and another. --Respondents THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE GODA RAGHURAM W.P.No. 2606 of 2006 Oral order:- The writ petition is misconceived. The petitioner’s authorization was suspended by the proceedings dated 16-01-2006 of the 2nd respondent, impugned herein. Aggrieved thereby, the petitioner preferred an appeal to the 1st respondent on 25- 01-2006. Along therewith he filed an application for interim relief. Aggrieved that neither his appeal nor the application for interim relief has been disposed of by the 1st respondent, the writ petition is filed assailing the proceedings dated 16-01-2006 of the 2nd respondent. As the petitioner has already pursued the appellate remedy, he ought not and shall not be allowed to pursue the remedy of judicial review. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed. The 1st respondent shall expeditiously consider and dispose of either the petitioner’s appeal or the application for interim relief, preferably within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. No costs. __________________ GODA RAGHURAM, J Date: 13-02-2006 Pvks/*
