The case of the petitioner, in brief, is that she was appointed as a dealer in respect of fair price shop No.18 of Rekhavanipalem village, Tuni Mandal, East Godavari District by the Revenue Divisional Officer, Peddapuram, East Godavari District - 2nd respondent. In the month of October, 2008, the Tahsildar, Tuni, East Godavari District - 3rd respondent has given her the additional charge of fair price shop No.40 of Seetharamapuram in Tuni Town. While so, on 11.07.2009 the Deputy Tahsildar, Civil Supplies, Jaggampet has inspected the fair price shop No.40 of Seetharampuram and seized the available stocks therein alleging certain irregularities, without hearing her. Thereafter, he sent a report dated 12.08.2009 to the 2nd respondent. Pursuant thereto, the 2nd respondent has suspended the authorisation in respect of shop No.40 of Seetharamapuram, Tuni Town, by proceedings in Ref.G.1198/09, dated 13.08.2009. Apart from that, now the respondents are not permitting her to distribute the essential commodities to the cardholders of shop No.18 of Rekhavanipalem village. Aggrieved by the same, she filed the present writ petition. 3. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Civil Supplies. 4. As seen from the order dated 13.08.2009 impugned in this writ petition, it is clear that the authorisation in respect of fair price shop No.40 of Seetharamapuram, Tuni Town was suspended. But, it is not understandable as to why the respondents are not supplying the essential commodities to the fair price shop No.18 of Rekhavanipalem village. So long as the authorisation of the petitioner in respect of shop No.18 of Rekhavanipalem village is in existence, the respondents shall not cause any inconvenience to her and she shall be allowed to continue as fair price shop dealer of the said shop. 5. Accordingly, this writ petition is disposed of, at the stage of admission, directing the respondents to supply the essential commodities to the fair price shop No.18 of Rekhavanipalem, Tuni Mandal, East Godavari District, forthwith, so as to enable to petitioner to distribute the same to the cardholders. There shall be no order as to costs. _________________________ GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA, J 2nd September, 2009 Note: Furnish CC by tomorrow.
