THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION NO.8239 OF 2003 DATED 18-07-2007 Between B. Rajasekharam … Petitioner And 1. The State of Andhra Pradesh, rep. by the Joint Collector, Warangal., and 4 others. .. Respondents THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION NO.8239 OF 2003 ORDER : The petitioner herein earlier filed W.P.No.22804 of 2002 seeking a declaration that the alleged action of the 2nd respondent – Revenue Divisional Officer, Warangal in selecting the 4th respondent herein as dealer of the fair price shop No.82, Ward No.42, Shiva Nagar, Warangal-3 as arbitrary and illegal. Having regard to the fact that nothing was placed before this Court to show that the 4th respondent herein was actually appointed as a dealer, the said Writ Petition was disposed of by this Court permitting the petitioner to canvas his contentions before the appellate authority i.e., Joint Collector, Warangal as and when any candidate is selected and appointed. The petitioner states that in terms of the order of this Court he made a representation/appeal dated 18-1-2003 before the Joint Collector, Warangal. Alleging that the 1st respondent failed to consider his appeal, this writ petition has been filed seeking a declaration that the action of the 2nd respondent in selecting the respondent No.4 as the fair price shop dealer without considering the eligible candidates, including the petitioner, as arbitrary and illegal. It is significant to note that even in this writ petition the petitioner could not produce any material to show that the 4th respondent herein was actually appointed as the authorized dealer of the shop No.82. Be that as it may, since the Appeal/Revision made by the petitioner under the A.P. State Public Distribution System Control Order, 2001 is pending before the 1st respondent, without expressing any opinion on merits, the Writ Petition is disposed of with a direction to the 1st respondent to consider the same and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law. No costs. ______________ G. ROHINI, J. Dt. 18-07-2007 gbs
