Heard learned counsel for the respective parties. The petition pertains to the allotment of the ration shop at Nijampura, Bhiwandi. Respondent no.3 by its order dated 20th February 2009 allotted the ration shop to respondent no.4. This order was challenged by the petitioner by filing revision before respondent no.2 – Minister. Respondent No.2 by the order impugned in this petition dismissed the said revision. 2. During the course of hearing on 7th January 2010 it was pointed by respondent no.4 that the petitioner is gainfully employed and therefore not eligible for the allotment of ration shop. Learned counsel for the petitioner today submitted that the petitioner is appointed on temporary basis as Aganwadi Sevika and the said fact will not disentitle her from claiming allotment of the ration shop. In this regard, the Government has filed an -: 2 :- affidavit of one Madhukar Bodake, Assistant Controller of Rationing, F- Region, Thane. In this affidavit the Government has taken a stand that the post of Aganwadisevika is a government job, whether permanent or temporary and therefore the petitioner is not eligible for the allotment of shop. 3. In the light of the above facts, I am not inclined to interfere with the impugned order in writ jurisdiction of this Court under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. Petition is therefore dismissed. (R.V. MORE, J.)
