Petitioner. And 1. The Joint Collector (CS)-I, R.R. District at Lakdikapul, Hyderabad-4 and 2 others. …. Respondents. * * * ORDER: This writ petition is filed seeking a writ of Mandamus declaring the proceedings No.E/516/2006 dated 27.5.2006 on the file of the second respondent, as arbitrary and illegal; and consequently to direct the second respondent to issue authorization to the petitioner against fair price shop No.148 at Temple Alwal, Alwal Municipality, Ranga Reddy District. 2. It appears that in pursuance of notification dated 28.02.2006, the petitioner as well as third respondent and some others applied for dealership of fair price shop No.148, Temple Alwal, Ranga Reddy District. The third respondent was selected and appointed by an order dated 27.5.2006. Aggrieved by the same, the petitioner in fact already filed an appeal before the Joint Collector (CS)-I, Ranga Reddy District. The appeal and the stay petition preferred along with the same are pending. 3. The only grievance of the petitioner is that though an appeal was filed long ago, neither the appeal nor the stay petition filed along with the same was taken up for hearing. 4. In view of the above, without expressing any opinion on merits, the Joint Collector-first respondent is directed to dispose of the appeal filed by the petitioner within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order, after hearing all the parties concerned, as per law. 5. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No costs. _________________ C.V.RAMULU, J. Date: 04th September 2006. BSB
