THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No : 28883 of 2008 ORDER: Petitioner is a fair price shop dealer for distribution of essential commodities. His dealership is covered by the provisions under the A.P.State Public Distribution (Control) Order, 2008, a control Order framed in exercise of the powers under Section 3 of the Essential Commodities Act ( for brevity, ‘the Act’). 2. In this Writ Petition, it is the case of the petitioner that mere initiation of proceedings under Section 6-A of the Act, is no ground to suspend the authorization granted to the petitioner under the Control Order, referred to above. Such a question is no more res integra in view of the judgment of this Court in AZMEERA BOOPATHI NAYAK V. THE DISTRICT COLLECTOR (CIVIL SUPPLIES), KARIMNAGAR & 2 OTHERS[1]. 3. At the admission stage, this Court granted interim suspension on 30.12.2008 and the said order continued all along. Though the Writ Petition is filed in 2008, no counter affidavit is filed so far. 4. In the absence of any reason for suspending the authorization of the petitioner, as contemplated under the provisions of the Control Order, referred to above, and further in view of the judgment referred to above, the impugned order is liable to be set aside and it is accordingly set aside. 5. Writ Petition is allowed. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY ,J 22nd November, 2011. Tsy [1] 2008(4) ALD 513
