THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA WRIT PETITION No.24919 of 2003 Dated : 21.09.2007 Between: Amaragani Prameela W/o Saidaiah ..... PETITIONER And: The District Collector (CS) Nalgonda, Nalgonda District and another. .....RESPONDENTS THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA WRIT PETITION No.24919 of 2003 ORDER: Petitioner is an authorized fair price shop dealer of Keethavarigudem and she was also in-charge of Thalla Malakapuram village of Garidepalli Mandal. On the allegation that BPT rice was not properly distributed to the consumers in the said villages during the month of September 2002, the second respondent by proceedings dated 12.12.2002 suspended the petitioner. Questioning the same, petitioner preferred an appeal before the Joint Collector, Nalgonda, and as the appellate authority refused to grant any interim order, he filed W.P.No.609 of 2003 before this Court and this Court suspended the order of the Revenue Divisional Officer, dated 12.12.2002. Subsequently, the Joint Collector passed a final order on 15.09.2003, confirming the order of the second respondent. Aggrieved thereby, petitioner preferred a revision before the first respondent and the first respondent also confirmed the said orders, and thus dismissed the revision on 30.10.2003. Hence, this writ petition. Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner it is clear that petitioner was only suspended pending enquiry into the allegations made against him, and the enquiry is still pending. Hence, this Court is of the view that this writ petition can be disposed of directing the respondents to allow the petitioner to continue to be the fair price shop dealer of Keethavarigudem village pending enquiry into the allegations made against him. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of directing the respondents to complete the enquiry initiated against the petitioner about the supply of BPT rice to BPT cardholders, as expeditiously as possible, and till such time, the petitioner may be permitted to continue as the fair price shop dealer for Keethavarigudem village. There shall be no order as to costs. __________ 21.09.2007 sh
