Since the petitioner has a statutory remedy before the Commissioner for Civil Supplies, it is not necessary for this court to go into the factual disputes at this stage. In the event of the petitioner pursuing the above remedy within two months from today, the matter will be duly considered and appropriate orders in accordance with law will be passed by the said authority, with an opportunity for hearing to all the affected parties, within another four months. The writ petition is disposed of as above.
