THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE GODA RAGHURAM WRIT PETITION NO : 17768 of 2005 DATED: 11.08.2005 Between: Smt T.Vasumathi, W/o Neelakanta Reddy, Aged about 35 years, Fair Price Shop Dealer, Madhavamala Village, Yerpedu Mandal, Chittoor District. …PETITONER And: The Joint Collector, Chittoor, Chittoor District and two others. …RESPONDENTS ORDER: The petitioner’s authorisation was suspended pending enquiry by the second respondent by the order, dated 25.07.2005, on the ground that the petitioner had committed irregularities in the distribution of essential commodities to the card holders of Madhavamala Village. As against the suspension, the petitioner preferred an appeal to the first respondent on 27.07.2005 along with an application for interim relief. The writ petition is filed challenging the order of suspension, dated 25.07.2005. As the petitioner has preferred an appellate remedy, this Court is not inclined to exercise the discretion to interfere with the orders of suspension pending enquiry of the petitioner’s authorisation. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of, after hearing the learned Government Pleader for Civil Supplies, directing the first respondent to expeditiously consider the petitioner’s representation/appeal, dated 27.07.2005, preferably within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. No order as to costs. ____________________ (GODA RAGHURAM, J) 11.08.2005 dr
