ORDER:-
Heard Sri Navuluru Krishna Sai, learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Government Pleader for Higher Education, appearing for the respondents.
2. The grievance of the petitioner in the instant writ petition is that against the action of the respondents in not releasing the admitted final bills to the petitioner for the work pertaining to providing C.C. Road and RO Plant with electrification arrangement to Government Junior College for boys at Pulivendula in YSR District for an amount of Rs.34,99,966/- after the entries recorded in M-Book.
3. When the matter has been taken up for hearing, the learned Standing Counsel for APEWIDC, Sri V.Ch. Naidu, has placed on record a copy of the remarks received by him in the case. A perusal of the same would reflect that the net amount payable to the petitioner is determined as Rs.30,27,954/- out of the gross amount of Rs.34,999,66/-.
6. Having regard to the same, as the sum of Rs.30,27,954/- is admitted as payable to the petitioner, this Court deems it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition directing the respondents to remit the admitted amount of Rs.30,27,954/-, to the petitioner within a period of three (03) months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
7. With the above observation, the Writ Petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs.
