He died on 01.08.2008. First petitioner is his wife and second petitioner is his daughter. They allege that the representation made by them for transfer of authorization to legal heirs is under consideration of Government. In the meanwhile when second respondent issued notification dated 29.12.2008 for appointment of regular dealer. They filed instant writ petition. They contend that if the first petitioner is not eligible for appointment of regular dealer by transfer of authorisation, which stood in the name of Trinadh, the same may be given to second respondent. This Court after hearing counsel for petitioner and Assistant Government Pleader for Civil Supplies holds that the writ petition is wholly misconceived. As per clause 5(12) of Andhra Pradesh State Public Distribution System (Control) Order, 2008, when the FPS dealer dies, the authorisation automatically stands cancelled and legal heirs shall have no right to claim dealership. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) 25.03.2010 Pln
