HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.18070 of 2010 Dated: 27-07-2010 Between: Smt. Kurshida Begum. … Petitioner And The Revenue Divisional Officer, Nuzvid, Krishna District & another. … Respondents HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.18070 of 2010 ORDER: Petitioner is an authorised fair price shop dealer for Shop No.28 of Pedda Avuatapalli village of Unguturu Mandal in Krishna District. In this writ petition, she has questioned the order, dated 21st of July 2010, passed by the Tahsildar, Unguturu Mandal, suspending his authorisation. In the aforesaid order, an allegation is made against the petitioner that she has committed certain irregularities by diverting the kerosene oil to black- market for doing clandestine business, and thus, violated the provisions of the A.P. Public Distribution System (Control) Order, 2008 and conditions of authorisation. In this writ petition, it is submitted by the learned counsel for petitioner that in the impugned order, there is no indication of conducting any inquiry. The very power of the authorities under the scheme of the Control order for suspension is, pending inquiry into the allegations. In that view of the matter, it has to be construed that the order of suspension is only pending inquiry. In any event, even according to the learned counsel for petitioner, the Tahsildar is having power only to suspend the authorisation for 90 days. The impugned order itself is dated 21st of July 2010, and in view of the allegations levelled against the petitioner to the effect that she has committed irregularities by diverting the stock to the black- market, I do not find any ground to interfere with the impugned order, dated 21st of July 2010, passed by the Tahsildar. But however, in view of the nature of allegations levelled against the petitioner, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition, directing respondent No.1 to conduct inquiry into the allegations which are subject matter of proceedings, dated 21st of July 2010, issued in Rc.B.2010, and take appropriate final decision in the matter within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Subject to the aforesaid directions, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. ______________________ R. SUBHASH REDDY, J 27th July 2010 Note: Furnish C.C. in one week. (b/o) ajr
