THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU Friday, 17th November, 2006 W.P.No.22715 of 2006 Between: Yelabolu Sambasiva Rao … Petitioner and The Revenue Divisional Officer, Narasaraopet, Guntur District and others … Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU W.P.No.22715 of 2006 ORAL ORDER: Heard both sides. It appears that the authorization held by the petitioner against fair price shop of Pitchikapalem village, Savalyapuram Mandal, Guntur District was suspended pending enquiry into certain irregularities, by the 1st respondent-Revenue Divisional Officer by his Proceedings in Rc.No.895/05-B, dated 18-5-2005. Aggrieved by the same, the petitioner has already filed a statutory appeal before the 3rd respondent-Joint Collector along with a stay application and the same is pending. Now the grievance of the petitioner is that though an appeal is filed long back along with a stay application against the Order of the 1st respondent dated 18-5-2005, neither the stay petition is disposed of nor the appeal is taken up for hearing. In the facts and circumstances of the case, without expressing any opinion on merits, the 3rd respondent is directed to dispose of the very appeal purported to have been filed by the petitioner against the Proceedings dated 18-5-2005 of the 1st respondent-Revenue Divisional Officer, within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. With the above direction, the Writ Petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. 17-11-2006 prk
