THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.3983 of 2011 Date:21.02.2011 Between: E. Surya Chandra Goud ..... Petitioner AND The Revenue Divisional Officer, Kurnool and another .....Respondents Counsel for the Petitioner: Sri K.V.Raghuveer Counsel for Respondents: Assistant Government Pleader for Civil Supplies The Court made the following: ORDER: This writ petition is filed for a mandamus to set aside the proceedings in Rc.B.72/2011 dated 22.01.2011, whereby respondent No.1 suspended the petitioner’s fair price shop authorization pertaining to shop No.45 of Kamaganikuntla Village, Dhone Mandal, Kurnool District. After hearing Sri K.V. Raghuveer, learned counsel for the petitioner, and perusing the record, I am of the opinion that as the petitioner has effective alternative remedy of appeal under the provisions of the Andhra Pradesh State Public Distribution System (Control) Order, 2008, this writ petition cannot be entertained at this stage. The law is well settled that this Court exercising its discretionary jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India would not ordinarily entertain a writ petition filed bypassing the alternative remedy. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is dismissed with liberty to the petitioner to file an appeal before the appellate authority. If such an appeal is filed, this Court has no manner of doubt that the appellate authority will consider the same and pass appropriate orders expeditiously. As a sequel to dismissal of the writ petition, W.P.M.P.No.4927 of 2011 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is dismissed as infructuous. ________________________ C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J 21st February, 2011 GHN
