IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) TUESDAY, THE FIFTEENTH DAY OF APRIL TWO THOUSAND AND EIGHT PRESENT THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION NO : 8021 of 2008 Between: K.Ramadevi W/o.Venkatadri R/o.Yakalacheruvu Village, Kadiri Mandal, Anantapur District. ..... PETITIONER AND 1 The District Collector (Civil Supplies) Ananthapur. 2 The Joint Collector, Anantapur, Anantapur District. 3 The Revenue Divisional Officer, Penukonda, Anantapur District. .....RESPONDENTS Counsel for the Petitioner: MR.K.MAHESWARA RAO Counsel for the Respondents: GP FOR CIVIL SUPPLIES The Court made the following : ORDER: This Writ Petition is filed for a writ of Mandamus to declare the action of respondent No.1 in not passing any orders on the stay petition filed in the revision before him as illegal and arbitrary. The petitioner’s fair price shop authorization for Yakalacheruvu Village, Kadiri Mandal, Anantapur District, was cancelled by respondent No.3 vide his proceedings dated 14-06-2005. The appeal filed by the petitioner against the said order before respondent No.2 was dismissed on 19-03-2008. The petitioner claims that he filed a revision petition before respondent No.1 against the said two orders on 08-04-2008, and also filed an application for stay of filling up the vacancy on permanent basis. The only grievance of the petitioner is that respondent No.1 has not passed any order on the stay application so far, but, on 01-04-2008, respondent No.3 issued notification to fill up the said vacancy on permanent basis. Having heard the learned Counsel for the petitioner, the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Civil Supplies and perused the record, I am of the view that interest of justice would be met, if the Writ Petition is disposed of with a direction to respondent No.2 not to proceed further, with regard to the filling up of vacancy of Yakalacheruvu fair price shop on permanent basis, until the revision petition filed by the petitioner before respondent No.1 is disposed of. Respondent No.1 is directed to dispose of the said revision petition within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Subject to the above directions, the Writ Petition is disposed of. As a sequel to dismissal of the Writ Petition, WPMP.No.10567 of 2008 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is dismissed. ______________________ (C.V.Nagarjuna Reddy, J) 15th April, 2008 lur
