THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE NOOTI RAMAMOHANA RAO WRIT PETITION NO. 22865 OF 2007 DATED: 30-10-2007 Between: Y. Jayachandra Reddy, S/o. Sri Y. Krishna Reddy … Petitioner And Union of India, rep. by its Secretary, Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, Central Secretariat, New Delhi and 15 others … Respondents THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO WRIT PETITION NO. 22865 OF 2007 ORDER: Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and Sri A. Rajashekar Reddy (Assistant Solicitor General), Sri M. Ravindranath Reddy, Sri O. Manohar Reddy and Sri P.V.Sanjay Kumar, for the respondents and perused the material on record. The petitioner appears to have sent a representation to the Hon’ble Minister for Petroleum and Natural Gas, Government of India on 12-10-2007 soliciting his intervention for extension of the last date for application for dealership beyond 31-10-2007. The grievance nurtured in this writ petition is that without deciding the said representation, the process of finalisation of the dealership as notified on 01-10-2007 is likely to be finalized. These aspects cannot be speculated by this court and all that the direction that can be issued is that the representation said to have been submitted by the petitioner on 12-10-2007 be disposed of as expeditiously as possible within a period of three months. With the above direction, the writ petition stands disposed of. No order as to costs. ______________________________ NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO, J.
