THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.7821 of 2010 April 08, 2010 Between: D.Lingam, S/o.Gangaram … Petitioner And The Revenue Divisional Officer, Jagtial Division, Karimnagar District And another ... Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.7821 of 2010 ORDER: Petitioner is dealer of Fair Price Shop (FPS) No.3108, Dharmaram Village of Mallapur Mandal in Karimnagar District. Second respondent issued show cause notice dated 18.11.2009 calling upon the petitioner to explain as to why FPS authorisation should not be cancelled for contravention and certain charges. On the same day, first respondent also passed yet another order suspending the authorisation. Be that as it is, petitioner submitted explanation on 02.12.2009 denying the allegations and charges. The enquiry is still pending. Even while the petitioner filed instant writ petition seeking a writ of Mandamus declaring the action of first respondent in not passing orders pursuant to the show cause notice dated 18.11.2009 and keeping the authorisation under suspension as illegal and arbitrary. There is no prohibition for suspending the authorisation by way of interim measure pending orders under Clause 5(5) of Andhra Pradesh State Public Distribution System (Control) Order 2008 (Control Order). Now that petitioner has submitted explanation to the show cause notice enquiry may take some time. Therefore if the petitioner is aggrieved by the order of suspension dated 18.11.2009 he has remedy by way of appeal under Clause 20 of Control Order. In the considered opinion, it is effective and efficacious remedy. The writ petition is misconceived and is accordingly dismissed, giving liberty to the petitioner to prefer appeal. ______________ (V.V.S. RAO, J) April 08, 2010 YS
