Sri Bade Nageshwar Rao v. The State Of Telangana

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE CHALLA KODANDA RAM WRIT PETITION No.1161 of 2019 O R D E R:

Petitioner asserts that he is a Fair Price Shop Dealer with respect to Shop No.2281004 of Moti Nagar, Khammam Town. His grievance is that respondent Nos.2 and 3 are not supplying the essential commodities for distribution though his licence was neither suspended nor cancelled and only a notice was issued as on date.

Learned Government Pleader for Civil Supplies appearing for the respondents, on instructions, submits that the show cause notice came to be issued on 24.01.2019 for enquiry and the petitioner is yet to submit his explanation.

In view of the above and as the licence of the petitioner is neither cancelled nor suspended as on date, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the matter, the writ petition is allowed with the direction to the respondents to supply essential commodities to the petitioner for distribution.

However, proceedings under 6-A of the Essential Commodities Act may go on in accordance with law.

Miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending in this writ petition shall also stand closed. There shall be no order as to costs. _________________________ CHALLA KODANDA RAM, J Dt:30.01.2019 kdl
