HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY Writ Petition No.1022 of 2010 Date: February 25, 2010 Between: N. Chinnaswamy Reddy, S/o. Mugabba Reddy, aged about 38 years, F.P. Shop Dealer No.33, Siddeswara Swamy Konda Village, G.D. Nellore Mandal, Chittoor District … Petitioner And The Joint Collector, Chittoor, Chittoor District, and two others … Respondents Order: In this writ petition, the petitioner has questioned proceedings in Roc. (B)/1769/2009, dated 06-08-2009, issued by the second respondent, Revenue Divisional Officer, Chittoor, Chittoor District. The Vigilance and Enforcement Officer, Tirupathi and Tahsildar, Nellore, appear to have inspected fair price shop No.33, S.S. Konda village, of which the petitioner herein is the dealer. On the ground that though the petitioner is the original dealer of the said shop, his relative Sri Yuvarajulu Reddy is operating the same and also an allegation that there is variation in the stocks, at the time of inspection, with the book balance, the authorization of the petitioner was suspended by the second respondent by the impugned proceedings. This court, while issuing notice before admission, by order dated 04-02-2010, suspended the impugned proceedings. It is stated that, on the same set of allegations, proceedings are initiated for cancellation of the dealership of the petitioner and show cause notice was issued on 15-09-2009, for which the petitioner has submitted his explanation. In view of pendency of the enquiry, on the allegations leveled against the petitioner, it is not desirable to record any finding on merits at this stage. As much as the allegations leveled against the petitioner are technical in nature and in view of the fact that interim suspension of the impugned proceedings is already granted, I dispose of the writ petition directing the second respondent, Revenue Divisional Officer, Chittoor, to complete the enquiry, pursuant to show cause notice dated 15-09- 2009, issued in Roc.B/1769/2009, and pass appropriate orders as expeditiously as possible, preferably within two months from the date of receipt of this order. Till such time, proceedings in Roc. (B)/1769/2009, dated 06-08-2009, shall remain suspended. No order as to costs. ________________________ R. SUBHASH REDDY, J February 25, 2010 N.B.
