IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) TUESDAY, THE TWENTY SECOND DAY OF JUNE TWO THOUSAND AND TEN PRESENT THE HON'BLE MS JUSTICE G.ROHINI WRIT PETITION No. 14154 of 2010 Between: Chinna Bala Satyam ..... PETITIONER AND The Revenue Divisional Officer, Kandukur Division, Kandukur Post & Mandal, Prakasam District and another .....RESPONDENTS The Court made the following : THE HON'BLE MS JUSTICE G.ROHINI WRIT PETITION No. 14154 OF 2010 O R D E R : The petitioner’s authorisation as dealer of the fair price shop of Gollapalem, Tarlaqpadu Mandal, Prakasam District was cancelled by the 1st respondent by order dated 24.04.2009. The petitioner states that the said order was communicated to him only on 24.04.2010 and immediately thereafter, he preferred an appeal before the Joint Collector, Prakasam District- 2nd respondent herein. Alleging that the 2nd respondent failed to consider his appeal, the present writ petition is filed seeking a declaration that the order of cancellation dated 24.04.2009, is arbitrary and illegal. Since admittedly, the statutory appeal is pending before the 2nd respondent, it is neither necessary nor proper for this Court to go into the merits of the case at this stage. Instead, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the Writ Petition with a direction to the 2nd respondent to dispose of the appeal pending on his file following due process of law as expeditiously as possible preferably within a period of four (4) weeks from the date of receipt of this order. No costs. ​ ____________ Date: 22.06.2010 G. ROHINI, J Ivd
