This writ appeal is filed against the order of the learned single Judge passed in W.P.No:13769 of 2009 on 10.7.2009. The appellant herein is the writ petitioner. On the submission made by the learned counsel for the writ petitioner before the learned single Judge that the petitioner may be permitted to participate in the public auction proposed to be held on 13.7.2009, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondents to permit the petitioner to participate in the public auction while making it clear that the price fetched through the sale of rice in public auction shall be deposited to the account of the District Collector (Civil Supplies), West Godavari, Eluru, which shall be subject to the outcome of the proceedings under section 6A of the Essential Commodities Act, 1955. Having sought for the liberty to participate in the public auction, before the learned single Judge, the petitioner has approached this Court by way of the present writ appeal. In these circumstances, We feel that the approach of the petitioner, does not appear to be a bonafide one. However, as sought for by the petitioner to participate in the public auction, liberty is granted to the petitioner to participate in the public auction. Subject to the above observation, this writ appeal is disposed of. No costs. ___________________________ Justice T. MEENA KUMARI _______________________ Justice SANJAY KUMAR Dated 17th July, 2009.
