Heard Sri K.Srinivas, learned counsel for the petitioner and perused the record. The petitioner’s fair price shop authorization was suspended by respondent No.1 on a prima facie consideration of alleged irregularities against the petitioner, which included the petitioner working as Staff Nurse in Dr.M.Ramesh Babu hospital at Chilakaluripet and variation in the public distribution rice found during the inspection. Under Clause 20(1) of the Andhra Pradesh State Public Distribution System Control Order, 2001, an appeal lies against the order impugned in this writ petition. Ordinarily, this Court would not entertain the writ petitions filed bypassing the statutory remedies and the petitioner failed to give any extraordinary reason to convince this Court to make a departure from this Rule. Inasmuch as the petitioner is entitled to avail the statutory remedy of appeal before the Joint Collector concerned, this writ petition is dismissed without going into the merits of the same, giving liberty to the petitioner to avail the said remedy. As a sequel to dismissal of main petition, WPMP.No.10184 of 2008 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J 10th APRIL, 2008 kvni
