O R D E R : The writ petitioner questions the cancellation orders passed by the Prohibition and Excise Superintendent, Mancherial, Adilabad district, vide Proceedings No.A2/138/2008, dated 07-5-2009 on the ground that the alleged violation of sale of adulterated toddy was in respect of shop No. 10 of TCS Bellampally but no information was made in respect of shop Nos. 1 to 9 and 11 and therefore, the cancellation of all the licences is illegal. 2. It is further stated that as against the suspension orders suspending all the licences of 11 shops, the petitioner filed WP.No.19793 of 2008 and this court granted interim suspension. 3.

Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of permitting the petitioner to file an appeal before the appellate authority i.e., the Deputy Commissioner of Prohibition and Excise, Adilabad, within a period of ten days from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
