THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY Writ Petition No.27756 of 2010 DT.10.11.2010 Between: Y.Anjanappa … Petitioner And The Joint Collector (Civil Supplies), Chittoor District, Chittoor & others. … Respondents Counsel for the Petitioner: Sri G.Vijay Kumar Counsel for respondents: AGP for Civil Supplies The Court made the following ORDER: ORDER: This writ petition is filed for a mandamus to set aside order, dated 05.09.2009, of respondent No.2, whereby he has cancelled the petitioner’s fair price shop authorization. I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and perused the record. On the petitioner’s own averments, against the order impugned in this writ petition, he has filed a statutory appeal before respondent No.1 on 19.09.2009 and that the same is pending. Thus, having availed a statutory remedy, it is not permissible for the petitioner to invoke a parallel remedy by filing this writ petition. Therefore, the prayer sought for in this writ petition cannot be granted. However, having regard to the grievance of the petitioner that the appeal before respondent No.1 is not being disposed of though more than one year has elapsed from the time of filing the appeal, respondent No.1 is directed to dispose of the appeal, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order, after giving notice to the petitioner. Subject to the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. As a sequel to disposal of the writ petition, W.P.M.P.No.35415 of 2010 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. (C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J) Date: 10.11.2010 VGB
