THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION NO. 4465 of 2007 DATE: 19-04-2007 Between : Smt. Ch.Mahalakshmamma … Petitioner And The Mandal Revenue Officer, Bollapalli Post & Mandal, Guntur District and another. … Respondents THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION NO. 4465 of 2007 ORDER: This writ petition is filed seeking a declaration that the inaction on the part of the first respondent-Mandal Revenue Officer, Bollapalli in implementing the order of the second respondent dated 20-12-2006 is arbitrary and illegal. It is to be noted that after making necessary enquiry into certain allegations against the petitioner-who is the fair price shop dealer of Pamidipadu village, the first respondent under the proceedings dated 20-12-2006 ordered to continue the petitioner as fair price shop dealer with a warning that she should be more careful in future and should not give any scope for allegations. Under the said proceedings, there was a further direction to the Mandal Revenue Officer to issue the essential commodities to the dealer from December, 2006 onwards and allow her to continue as fair price shop dealer. Alleging that in spite of the said order, the first respondent failed to release the essential commodities, this writ petition has been filed. Learned Government Pleader under instructions from the respondents submitted that despite issuance of notice to pay the demand drafts for release of the essential commodities, since there was no response from the writ petitioner, the commodities could not be released. The learned counsel for the petitioner disputed the same and submitted that the petitioner is always ready and willing to deposit the required amounts. Having regard to the facts and circumstances, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the first respondent to release the essential commodities to the petitioner for the month of May, 2006 and continue the same thereafter, every month on depositing the demand drafts towards the cost of the essential commodities. No costs. _______________ G. ROHINI, J. Date:19-04-2007 KLP
