According to the learned counsel for petitioner, the said application is not acted upon and in the meanwhile, the said fair price shop is allotted to a third party as a temporary measure. Under those circumstances, without going into merits, the sole respondent is directed to consider the representation made by the petitioner on 16.9.2008 and pass appropriate orders, as per law, for the purpose of considering allotment of fair price shop in favour of petitioner, which was held by his grand father, as per the circulars in force as of now.
