He filed instant writ petition alleging that on 03.2.2009 third respondent and Food Inspector, Huzurabad, inspected the petitioner’s FPS and after verifying the stock, seized 20 Kgs of rice and 190 litres of kerosene. A case under Section 6-A of the Essential Commodities Act, 1955, was booked. Be that as it is, petitioner alleges that even though he obtained necessary demand draft for lifting the stock, respondents were not supplied the stocks. He therefore filed writ petition challenging the seizure as well as non-supply of essential commodities to his shop. This Court while admitting the writ petition on 12.2.2009 passed interim orders directing the respondents to supply essential commodities to FPS No.1216 of Saidabad, if authorisation of petitioner is neither suspended nor cancelled. Even after lapse of about 1½ years respondents are not filed counter affidavit nor entered a demur denying the allegation of petitioner that authorisation neither suspended nor cancelled. Therefore the writ petition is disposed of in terms of interim order observing that is the petitioner’s authorisation is still subsisting and it is neither cancelled nor suspended, he shall be allowed to discharge functions as dealer of FPS No.1216 of Saidabadm Village. The writ petition, with the above observations, is accordingly disposed of. _______________ (V.V.S.RAO,J) April 06, 2010 YS
