THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE P.S.NARAYANA Writ Petition No.3331 of 2008 Between : Sri N.Venkaiah s/o. Ramaiah .. Petitioner and The Joint Collector, Nellore and others .. Respondents THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE P.S.NARAYANA Writ Petition No.3331 of 2008 ORDER:- Heard Sri V.Sudhakar Reddy, the learned Counsel representing the Writ Petitioner, the learned A.G.P. for Civil Supplies representing R.1 and R.2 and Mr. T.C.Krishnan, the learned Counsel representing R.3. 2. Sri V.Sudhakar Reddy, the learned Counsel representing the Writ Petitioner had taken this Court through the order made by the 1st respondent – Joint Collector, Nellore, dt.15-2-2008 and would maintain that the said order is contrary to the order made in W.P.No.24024/2007 dt.31-1-2008. 3. It is no doubt true that as can be seen from what had been observed in paras 3, 4 and 5 of the Order made in W.P.No.24024/2007, the order made by the Joint Collector, Nellore, dt.15-2-2008 cannot be said to be in accordance with the views expressed by this Court. However, the main grievance appears to be the jurisdiction of the Tahasildar to further proceed and to complete the enquiry. Though the order made by the 1st respondent dt.15-2-2008 is not happily worded, instead of remitting the matter again to the 1st respondent, in the light of the observations made, let the Revenue Divisional Officer, Nellore – the competent authority to further proceed with the issuance of show cause notice and giving opportunity to the writ petitioner and also to complete the enquiry in accordance with law, within a period of eight weeks as specified by the 1st respondent and till such enquiry is completed, the writ petitioner be permitted to distribute the commodities. 4. The Writ Petition is disposed of accordingly. No order as to costs. _____________________ Justice P.S.Narayana 21st February, 2008 smr
