THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION NO. 23292 of 2006 DATE: 26-07-2007 Between : B.Sirisha … Petitioner And The Revenue Divisional Officer, Tirupathi, Chittoor District and another. … Respondents THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION NO. 23292 of 2006 ORDER: The petitioner is the authorized dealer of the price shop No.1 of Irugulam village, Satyavedu Mandal, Chittoor District. By order dated 02-11-2006 passed by the first respondent-Revenue Divisional Officer, the petitioner’s authorization was suspended pending enquiry on the ground of alleged irregularities in distribution of essential commodities. Challenging the said order, the petitioner filed the present writ petition. This Court, while directing Rule Nisi, by order, dated 08-11-2006, granted suspension of the order dated 02-11-2006. In the counter affidavit filed on behalf of the respondents, it is stated that the enquiry initiated against the petitioner is already in progress and by virtue of the interim suspension granted by this Court, the stocks are being released to the petitioner for distribution to the cardholders. Having regard to the fact that the enquiry is pending before the first respondent, it is neither necessary nor proper for this court to go into the merits of the case. However, since the petitioner has been continuing as the dealer from 08-11-2006 onwards by virtue of the interim orders granted by this Court, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition with a direction to the first respondent to dispose of the enquiry as expeditiously as possible preferably within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Till such time, the interim suspension granted by this Court shall continue and the impugned order shall not be given effect to. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. _______________ G. ROHINI, J. Date:26-07-2007 KLP
