THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY Writ Petition No.26026 of 2010 DT.22.10.2010 Between: Desireddy Kota Subba Reddy … Petitioner And The Revenue Divisional Officer, Markapuram, Prakasam District and another. … Respondents Counsel for the Petitioner: Smt.K.Aruna Counsel for respondents: AGP for Civil Supplies. The Court made the following ORDER: ORDER: This writ petition is filed assailing order, dated 13.09.2010, whereby respondent No.1 has suspended the petitioner’s fair price shop authorization, pending enquiry into the charges levelled against him. At the hearing, Smt.K.Aruna, learned counsel for the petitioner, submitted that no prior notice was issued to the petitioner before suspending his authorization and that having issued show-cause notice on the same day on which the order of suspension was passed, respondent No.1 ought to have waited till the petitioner submitted his explanation and the same was considered. In my opinion, the impugned order is in the nature of an interim action, pending enquiry into the allegations. Therefore, no prior notice is required before passing impugned order. In this view of the matter, I do not find any illegality in the order impugned in this writ petition. The writ petition is dismissed, however, with a direction to respondent No.1 to complete the enquiry and pass final order, within a period of one month from the date of receipt of the explanation that may be submitted by the petitioner. As a sequel to dismissing the writ petition, W.P.M.P.No.33250 of 2010 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is also dismissed as infructuous. (C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J) Date: 22.10.2010. VGB
