THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.2058 of 2011 ORDER: The petitioner was selected as a dealer for establishing a petroleum outlet of the Hindusthan Petroleum Corporation Limited at Anandbagh, Hyderabad. One of the conditions incorporated in the notification is that the selected candidates shall be under obligation to lease the land for a period of 15 years to the Company and the lease shall be extendable by another 15 years. The petitioner accordingly arranged the land by obtaining lease from a third party. However, some uncertainty persisted as to the manner in which the lease shall be extended beyond 15 years. While the petitioner insisted that it should be only with the consent of herself and her lessor, the respondent is said to have taken the view that the extension can be without any reference to the petitioner or her lessor. Narrating her grievance, the petitioner submitted a representation, dated 20.01.2011. She states that no action has been taken thereon. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondent. The small area of controversy is as to the interpretation of the clause contained in the notification. On account of the pendency of the matter, the outlet is not established. To pave the way for it, the respondent can consider the representation made by the petitioner and pass appropriate orders. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the respondent to consider the representation, dated 20.01.2011, submitted by the petitioner and pass appropriate orders, within a period of four (4) weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. _____________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY,J Dt:04.02.2011 kdl
