                                    JUDGMENT

Writ petition is filed for a direction to the first respondent

to consider and dispose of Ext.P2 representation submitted by

the petitioner before the 1st respondent/District Collector. It is

submitted by petitioner that gas agency allotted to her is running

in accordance with the conditions of the agency prescribed by

the oil company. Petitioner’s case is that even though petitioner

submitted Ext.P2 representation before the 1st respondent, no

action has been taken so far in the matter.

2. Government Pleader submitted that complaints are

received from customers. In any case, since the 3rd respondent

against whom complaint is made by petitioner is under the

District Collector, I direct the District Collector to conduct

enquiry and take appropriate action in accordance with the

conditions for distribution of gas. If any adverse action is

proposed against petitioner based on enquiry, Collector should

communicate the same to the petitioner. District Collector will

afford an opportunity for hearing petitioner’s objection and then

only pass orders. Collector shall take final decision in the matter

on all complaints within a period of six weeks from the date of

production of a copy of this judgment.

Writ petition is disposed of as above.
