Writ Petition No.896 of 2016
ORDER:
Questioning the inaction of the respondents in issuing the household card to the petitioner inspite of submitting the application as being illegal, arbitrary and against the principles of natural justice, the present writ petition came to be filed.
Petitioner claims to be a permanent resident of Machavaram village of Ponnuru Mandal, Guntur District. She is a poor widow, having no independent source of income. Due to old age ailments, she is unable to do any work. As the Government is issuing household cards to the poor and below poverty line people for the purpose of supply of essential commodities and also extending the benefit of Aarogyasri and old aged and widow pension, she approached the respondent authorities by way of an application for the purpose of issuance of household card.
The grievance of the petitioner is that her application for issuance of household card and also extending the benefit of Aarogyasri is not considered.
At the hearing, learned Assistant Government Pleader for Civil Supplies submits that considering the petitioner's application, the respondent authorities have issued household card and also extended the benefits of Aarogyasri to the petitioner.
Learned Assistant Government Pleader, on instructions, further states that one year back, when the petitioner went to Delhi to see her son, she had expired.
Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case and the submissions of the learned Assistant Government Pleader, this Court is of the 2 opinion that no further orders need be passed in the writ petition and the writ petition can be closed.
Accordingly, the Writ Petition is closed. There shall be no order as to costs.
Pending miscellaneous petitions, if any, shall also stand dismissed.
