THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.RAMULU W.P.No.17278 of 2006 Dated: 21.08.2006 Between S.Sanjeeva Rao …..Petitioner and 1. The District Collector, Civil Supplies, Warangal District, Hanamkonda and others. ….Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.RAMULU W.P.No.17278 of 2006 ORDER: It appears that the authorization of the petitioner for fair price shop dealership was cancelled by the Revenue Divisional Officer, Narsampet, Warangal by his proceedings dated 5.1.2005. Aggrieved by the same, the petitioner carried the matter in appeal before the Joint Collector, Warangal in file No.F3/119/2005. However, the appellate authority dismissed the appeal holding that there was a delay of 70 days in preferring the appeal and therefore, the same is time barred. Except this, no other merit was considered. Aggrieved by the same, the petitioner further carried the matter in revision before the District Collector, Warnagal. The said revision is pending. However, the stay application filed by the petitioner was rejected by an order dated 3.5.2006. It is an admitted fact that even during the pendency of the appeal, there was no stay of the orders passed by the Revenue Divisional Officer. Therefore, it cannot be said that the District Collector was not right in rejecting the application of the petitioner for grant of stay during the pendency of the revision. Therefore, the writ petition is liable to be dismissed. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed. No costs. However, the District Collector is directed to dispose of the revision itself within a period of 2 months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order as per law and communicate the same to the petitioner. __________ 21.08.2006 rkk
