(Control) over, 2001 and pass such other order or orders as this Hon'ble Court may deem fit and proper in the circumstances of the case. Counsel for the Petitioner: MR.V.VENUGOPALA RAO Counsel for the Respondents: GP FOR CIVIL SUPPLIES The Court made the following: ORDER: Petitioner questions the impugned orders canceling his fair price shop authorization. 2. The dealership has been cancelled on the ground that the petitioner diverted the rice into black market and also sold the PDS rice, AAY rice and Kerosene oil for higher rates, not maintaining the stock register and distribution property, not produced authorization, not maintained price cum stock list board and the not kept samples of the commodities. As the charges have been proved, I do not see any grounds to come to a different conclusion from that of the concurrent findings of the Revenue Divisional Officer and the Joint Collector. 3. Counter has been filed stating that pursuant to the cancellation of the authorization, a notification dated 02.04.2005 has been issued calling for applications to fill up the fair price shop vacancy and interviews were conducted on 16.05.2005. One Mr. M. Balraj was selected and appointed as fair price shop dealer at Yengandla Village on temporary basis subject to the outcome of the writ petition. 4. As the newly appointed temporary dealer has not been impleaded and as none appears for the petitioner, I do not see any merits in the writ petition and the petitioner is not entitled for any relief. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. ______________ V. ESWARAIAH, J April 29, 2008 DSK
