THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.4576 of 2010 ORDER: Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Civil Supplies representing the respondents. This writ petition is filed challenging the order, dated 02.02.2010, whereby the 1st respondent - Revenue Divisional Officer, Guntur, suspended the authorisation of the petitioner in respect of Fair Price Shop No.7 situated at Kotanemalipuri Village, Rajupalem Mandal, Guntur District, on the ground that she made fictitious entries in the Sales Register for the month of October, 2009 and misused about 620 kgs of rice by diverting it to the black market. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that because the petitioner has approached this Court earlier, the 1st respondent has made false allegations that she made fictitious entries in the Sales Register and diverted rice to the black market and passed the impugned order. The impugned order is in the nature of suspension pending enquiry into the matter. As per the provisions of the Andhra Pradesh Public Distribution System Control Order, 2008, such power is conferred on the Revenue Divisional Officer. In the impugned order, certain names of the cardholders and the quantity, which they are entitled to and the quantity, which was supplied to them, were mentioned. Though it is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the allegations made against the petitioner are false, in view of fact that they are serious in nature, this Court cannot go into the same and it is a matter for enquiry by the competent authority. Admittedly, the matter is under pending consideration. In the circumstances, I deem it appropriate to direct the respondents to complete the enquiry as expeditiously as possible, preferably, within a period of two (2) months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Further, they shall not make any permanent arrangement in the place of the petitioner till conclusion of the enquiry. It is open to them to make temporary arrangement in the place of the petitioner in order to avoid inconvenience to the cardholders. Subject to the above directions, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. _______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 26th FEBRUARY, 2010. Note: issue c.c. in five (5) days. kvni
