IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) WEDNESDAY, THE SIXTEENTH DAY OF APRIL TWO THOUSAND AND EIGHT PRESENT THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION NO : 12839 of 2007 Between: L. Krishnama naidu S/o.Anjaneyulu Naidu G.D.Nellore Mandal, Chittoor District. ..... PETITIONER AND 1 The Commissioner of Civil Supplies, A.P., Somajiguda, Hyderabad. 2 District Collector (Civil Supplies) Chittoor District, Chittoor 3 Revenue Divisional Officer, Chittoor Chittoor District, 4 Mandal Revenue Officer, G.D. Nellore, Chittoor District. .....RESPONDENTS Counsel for the Petitioner: MR.J.KANAKAIAH Counsel for the Respondents: GP FOR CIVIL SUPPLIES The Court made the following : ORDER: This Writ Petition is filed for a writ of Mandamus to declare order dated 22-03-2007, whereby respondent No.2 bifurcated the fair price shop of K.Nasampalle Village, G.D.Nellore Mandal, Chittoor District, as illegal and arbitrary. A perusal of the averments contained in Para 6 of the affidavit, filed in support of the Writ Petition, shows that against the impugned order, the petitioner filed an appeal before respondent No.1, and that the said appeal was entertained, but, no order was passed on the stay application filed by the petitioner. Hence, the petitioner filed the present Writ Petition. This Court, on 29-06-2007, passed an interim order and the respondents filed a purported application for vacating the said interim order. A perusal of the proceeding sheet shows that on 29-06-2007, no stay has been granted by this Court except directing the respondents to entertain the demand drafts to be submitted by the petitioner. In this view of the matter, the said vacate stay petition is wholly misconceived. Since on the petitioner’s own showing, he has already availed the remedy of filing an appeal before respondent No.1, I intend to dispose of the Writ Petition with the direction to respondent No.1 to dispose of the appeal filed by the petitioner, within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Ordered accordingly. ______________________ (C.V.Nagarjuna Reddy, J) 16th April, 2008 lur
