O R D E R:
1. The present Writ Petition is filed challenging the initiation of proceedings under Section 51 of the Andhra Pradesh Cooperative Societies Act, 1964 (for short, “the Act”), for conducting an enquiry pursuant to the proceedings in Rc.No.163/2023C, dated 04.02.2023.
2. The learned Assistant Government Pleader has filed a counter-affidavit. In paragraph No.6 thereof, it is contended that, pursuant to the ordering of an enquiry under Section 51 of the Act, the Periodical Inspection Officer, who conducted the inspection for the period from 01.04.2022 to 31.03.2023, submitted a report stating that the petitioner had retained with him a credit cash balance of Rs.3,18,541/-, a non-credit cash balance of Rs.4,30,037/-, and a Super Bazaar cash balance of Rs.4,04,701.48/-. It is further contended that, in terms of Bylaw Nos.29(vii), 29(xi) and 29(C)(ii), the petitioner is liable for the aforesaid amounts and, therefore, cannot dispute his liability. As such, the enquiry has been concluded under section 51 of the Andhra Pradesh Cooperative Societies Act, 1964.
3. In view of the aforesaid submissions, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that, upon receipt of the enquiry report, the petitioner would avail himself of such remedies as are available to him in law for redressal of his grievance.

4. Recording the aforesaid submission, no further adjudication is warranted in the present Writ Petition at this stage. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is dismissed as infructuous. It is, however, made clear that the dismissal of the Writ Petition shall not preclude the petitioner from availing such remedies as may be available to him in law, in accordance with law. There shall be no order as to costs.
Consequently, any interim orders granted earlier shall stand vacated. Pending miscellaneous applications, if any, shall also stand closed.
