THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION No.10887 of 2007 ORAL ORDER: The petitioner is the authorized dealer of the fair price shop No.975/1 of Akula Thanda, Itikalapalli village, Narsampet Mandal, Warangal District. The said authorization was suspended pending enquiry vide proceedings of the 2nd respondent dated 17.4.2007 alleging certain irregularities in distribution of essential commodities to the card-holders. Aggrieved by the same, the petitioner preferred an Appeal before the 1st respondent-Joint Collector along with an application for stay of all further proceedings pursuant to the order dated 17.4.2007. However, the 1st respondent failed to consider the appeal and, therefore, this writ petition is filed seeking a declaration that the order of the 2nd respondent dated 17.4.2007, which was passed without notice to the petitioner as arbitrary and illegal. Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Civil Supplies appearing for the respondents and having regard to the fact that the order impugned was passed in public interest as interim measure pending enquiry into the alleged irregularities, I do not find any justifiable reason to interfere with the same in exercise of jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. Instead, I deem it appropriate to direct the 2nd respondent to complete the enquiry initiated against the petitioner expeditiously following due process of law. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the 2nd respondent to complete the enquiry initiated against the petitioner following due process of law and pass appropriate orders as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of three weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. No costs. ____________ 14th June, 2007. (G. ROHINI, J). THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION No.10887 OF 2007 14th June, 2007. Between: Bhukya Murali. .. Petitioner.
