THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.24659 of 2010 Dated 04th October, 2010 Between: M/s Gurukrupa Gas Agencies, Mahabubnagar …Petitioner And The Government of Andhra Pradesh, and others. …Respondents Counsel for the petitioner: Mr. O. Manohar Reddy Counsel for respondents: Assistant Government Pleader for Civil Supplies The Court made the following: ORDER: This writ petition is filed for a Mandamus to declare the action of respondent No.3 in not granting interim order pending disposal of the appeal filed by the petitioner questioning order dated 14.09.2010 of respondent No.1. The petitioner’s Form-B licence for distribution/supply of L.P.G. has been suspended pending enquiry by order dated 14.09.2010 passed by respondent No.1. Feeling aggrieved by the said order, the petitioner filed an appeal before respondent No.3. The grievance of the petitioner is that though the appeal is filed along with stay application as far back as 29.09.2010, no orders have been passed thereon by respondent No.3 till now. In my opinion as the appeal filed by the petitioner was in relation to an interim suspension, the same involved urgency because the very purpose of filing the appeal would be frustrated if the same is not disposed of in a time bound manner. In this view of the matter, the Writ Petition is disposed of with the direction to respondent No.3 to dispose of the appeal within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order after giving notice to the petitioner. If the petitioner does not cooperate with the disposal of the appeal, respondent No.3 shall be free to dispose of the same on merits. As a sequel to disposal of the writ petition, W.P.M.P.No.31560 of 2010 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. ________________________ C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J 04th October, 2010 GHN
