THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.16663 of 2009 Dated:10.03.2010 Between: N.Poleswaramma .. Petitioner And The Joint Collector, Nellore And others .. Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.16663 of 2009 ORDER: The petitioner is a Dealer of Fair Price Shop (FPS) K.K.Gunta Village of Dagadarthi Mandal in Nellore District. By an order, dated 23.09.2008, the second respondent cancelled his authorization. The petitioner preferred an appeal under Clause 20 of the Andhra Pradesh State Public Distribution System (Control) Order, 2008, before the second respondent and the same is pending. In the meanwhile, second respondent invited applications for appointment of FPS dealers in as many as 18 villages in 8 Mandals of Kavali Division. The petitioner’s FPS in K.K.Gunta is also one of the shops in respect of which applications are invited. Aggrieved by the same, the petitioner filed the present Writ Petition. This Court, while granting time to learned Assistant Government pleader for Civil Supplies to get instructions in the matter, directed the respondents not to fill up the dealership on permanent basis. This Court heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Assistant Government Pleader for Civil Supplies. There cannot be any dispute that if ultimately the petitioner succeeds in the appeal, second respondent has to re-issue authorization to the petitioner. Therefore, pending appeal, if a permanent dealer is appointed for K.K.Gunta Village, it would certainly renders such a course as not contemplated under Control Order. Therefore, while directing the second respondent not to proceed with the appointment of FPS K.K.Gunta Village and further directing the Joint Collector to dispose of the appeal preferred by the petitioner within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order, the Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. _________________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) 10.03.2010 KH
