PETITIONER AND 1 The Collector ( Civil Supplies ) at Karimnagar. 2 The Assistant Supply Officer, Karimnagar, Karimnagar District. .....RESPONDENTS Counsel for the Petitioner:MR.A.RAVINDER Counsel for the Respondents:AGP FOR CIVIL SUPPLIES The Court made the following : ORDER: This writ petition is filed for a mandamus to declare seizure of 440 quintals of rice and 28 quintals of broken rice by respondent No.2 on 27.06.2009 from the petitioner, as illegal and arbitrary. At the hearing, Sri A.Ravinder, learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that his client has not committed any illegality and respondent No.2 ignored the endorsement of renewal of license made on 09.05.2009 showing that the petitioner’s license was renewed up to 30.09.2009. Inasmuch the petitioner’s application for release of the seized stock was stated to be pending, it is not appropriate for this Court to give a finding on the contention of the learned counsel. Respondent No.1 is directed to dispose of the petitioner’s application, by taking into consideration his claim that his food grains license was renewed up to 30.09.2009 and that he has not committed any illegality in storing the food grains. It is needless to observe that till disposal of the petitioner’s application, the seized stock shall not be sold. With the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. As a sequel to disposal of main petition, WPMP.No.17391 of 2009 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J 7th JULY, 2009. kvni
