It appears that an enquiry has been initiated by the Revenue Divisional Officer, Bhongir, Nalgonda District alleging certain irregularities in distribution of essential commodities. The petitioner was called upon to submit her explanation. Accordingly, she submitted her explanation on 21-2-2004. Having considered the same, the Revenue Divisional Officer, Bhongir passed orders on 22-7-2004 stating that in view of the report of the Mandal Revenue Officer, Motkur Mandal, Nalgonda District and the explanation submitted by the petitioner, the petitioner has been let off from the charges with a fine of Rs.1,000/- with a warning to be careful in future. There was also a direction to the Mandal Revenue Officer, Motkur Mandal, Nalgonda District to allot essential commodities and issue release order in her favour and keep a watch in prompt lifting of essential commodities in time. The only grievance of the petitioner is that in spite of the fact that she has already paid fine amount of Rs.1,000/- in compliance with the order passed by the Revenue Divisional Officer, Bhongir dated 22-7-2004, the Mandal Revenue officer, Motkur failed to implement the orders of the Revenue Divisional Officer, Bhongir and the essential commodities have not been released so far. The learned Government Pleader, who took notice for the respondents, under instructions, states that the order of the Revenue Divisional Officer, Bhongir has become final. In the circumstances, I am of the view that the Mandal Revenue Officer, Motkur is bound to implement the orders of the Revenue Divisional Officer, Bhongir dated.22-7-2004. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the Mandal Revenue Officer, Motkur to implement the order passed by the Revenue Divisional Officer, Bhongir dated.22-7-2004 and to release the essential commodities to the petitioner in terms of the said order within one week from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. No order as to costs. ___________ 19-08-2004 Note: Issue C.C. in three days.
