Counsel for the Petitioner:MR.K.V.RAGHU VEER Counsel for the Respondents: GP FOR CIVIL SUPPLIES The Court at the admission stage made the following : ORDER: This writ petition is filed seeking a writ of mandamus declaring the action of the 2nd respondent in canceling the authorization of the petitioner vide proceedings dated 05.04.2005 without conducting any enquiry as illegal and arbitrary and consequently to set aside the orders of the 1st respondent. Petitioner was appointed as a Fair Price Shop Dealer for R.Kothapalli Village, Bethamcharla mandal, Kurnool District. The 2nd respondent issued a show cause notice dated 19.03.2005 framing three charges and required the petitioner to submit the explanation. She submitted her explanation. Subsequently, the 2nd respondent through his proceedings dated 05.04.2005 cancelled the authorization of the petitioner. Aggrieved thereby, the petitioner filed an appeal before the 1st respondent together with an application for interim orders. The 1st respondent passed an order rejecting the application for stay while admitting the appeal. Petitioner challenges the same in this writ petition and seeks appropriate relief. Inasmuch as the appeal is pending before the 1st respondent, without going into the merits of the matter, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition with a direction to the 1st respondent to dispose of the appeal, as expeditiously as possible, not later than six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. 29.04.2005 TS 1 The Joint Collector, Kurnool district 2 The revenue Divisonal Officer, Kurnool district 3 The mandal Revenue Officer, Bethamcharla, Kurnool District 4 2 CCs to the G.P. for Revenue, High Court of A.P., Hyderabad. 5 2 CD copies.
