THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.6219 of 2010 Dated:31.05.2010 Between: M/s.Venkataramana Auto Gas Dealers. ….Petitioner And The District Collector, Warangal District, And another. …Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.6219 of 2010 ORDER: M/s.Venkataramana Auto Gas Dealers, the petitioner herein, entered into a dealership agreement for Auto Gas Dispensing Station with M/s.Aegis Logistics Limited, Mumbai. It appears, the latter made an application to the competent authority, namely, the District Magistrate and Collector, Warangal, seeking No Objection Certificate (NOC) for establishing the Auto Gas Dispensing Station. The petitioner, who is allegedly the dealer also appears to have made an application. By impugned memo dated 09.02.2010 the District Collector purporting to accept the recommendation made by the second respondent rejected the NOC. The memo was communicated to M/s.Aegis Logistics Limited. A copy was also sent to the petitioner. The petitioner filed the instant writ petition feeling aggrieved by the memo rejecting the NOC. The matter was initially listed on 19.03.2010 and it was adjourned four times thereafter to implead M/s.Aegis Logistics Limited also as a party. In spite of the Court’s indulgence in adjourning the matter to rectify the defect, no steps have been taken so far. In this background this Court is convinced that on the principle of jus tertii the writ petition would not lie. Giving liberty to M/s.Aegis Logistics Limited to challenge the impugned memo, the Writ Petition is dismissed. _______________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) 31.05.2010 vs
