THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE A.GOPAL REDDY W.P.No.8258 of 2006 Dt. 24-04-2006 Between: Maddala Vijaya Lakshmi ..petitioner and 1.The R.D.O., c/o Sub-Collector, Tenali Division, Tenali, Guntur District and others. ..Respondents THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE A.GOPAL REDDY W.P.No.8258 of 2006 Oral Order: Petitioner who was appointed as fair price shop dealer was also permitted to distribute the kerosene to the cardholders. While so, the Mandal Revenue Officer, Bapatlas—2nd respondent by proceedings dated 10-04-2006 considered the request of the erstwhile kerosene dealer for restoration of kerosene allotment for distribution to the cardholders covered by Bethampudi area which was withdrawn from him and allotted to the petitioner earlier. Complaining about withdrawal of cards which was attached to the petitioner he made a representation to the Revenue Divisional Officer, Tenali—1st respondent on 19-04-2006 and filed the present writ petition questioning the order passed by the 2nd respondent stating that the said order is passed without issuing any notice to the petitioner. Once the 3rd respondent was the erstwhile authorized allottee to distribute the kerosene for Bethampudi area which was withdrawn and tagged on to the petitioner’s fair price shop, when it is restored to the original allottee, no notice as such is required. Any arrangement made for distribution in the interregnum period will be only stop gap arrangement. Since the petitioner has already filed a representation to the 1st respondent he has to consider and pass appropriate orders uninfluenced by any of the observations made in this order. Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of. No costs. _________________ A.GOPAL REDDY, J. 24-04-2006 Murthy
