1. The petitioner, in this Writ Petition, has prayed for the following reliefs:- “10.1 Call for the entire records pertaining to the case from the Respondent authorities. 10.2 Set aside the Impugned Order dated 03.09.2026 (Annexure P-8) passed by Respondent No. 5, as well as the ex-parte Inquiry Report dated 14.08.2026 (Annexure P-7). 10.3 Restrain the Respondents, their agents, and subordinates from disturbing or interfering with the peaceful possession and operation of the Fly Ash Bricks Unit by the Petitioner Samiti in the RIPA premises of Gram Panchayat Khajurani pursuant to Resolution dated 08.03.2024. 10.4 Direct the Respondent No.5 to decide the representation of petitioner dated 8.9.2026 (Annexure P-9) within stipulated time. 10.5 Direct the Respondents to conduct an objective, transparent,
and
joint accounting/audit regarding production and sales, enabling the Petitioner Samiti to remit the 5% share and clear verified electricity dues. 10.6 Grant any other relief, order, or direction that this Hon'ble Court may deem fit and proper in the facts and circumstances of the case, including the award of costs in favor of the Petitioner.”
2. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has been issued a notice whereby he has been directed to pay an amount towards the electricity bill as well as 5% of the total profit from running the Fly Ash Bricks Unit. However, he submits that the aforesaid notice has been issued without affording an opportunity of hearing to the petitioner. He further submits that the petitioner has already deposited Rs.20,000/- towards the electricity bill and is ready to pay the outstanding amount; however, the details of the outstanding amount are required to be informed to the petitioner so that the petitioner may pay the amount in question. He also submits that the petitioner has been running the Fly Ash Bricks Unit since 01.04.2024 and as such, the amount payable by him may be calculated from 01.04.2024. He, therefore, prays that the concerned authority may be directed to provide the details of the outstanding amount and consider the case of the petitioner in accordance with law.
3. Learned State counsel has no objection to the prayer made by learned counsel for the petitioner.
4. Having considered the submissions made by learned counsel for the parties and particularly considering the fact that the petitioner is ready and wiling to deposit the amount, it appears that the only dispute is with regard to the period from which the amount is payable. Accordingly, the petitioner is directed to file an appropriate application along with the requisite amount which he seeks to deposit. In turn, the concerned authorities shall calculate the outstanding amount and inform the petitioner of the same, while considering his objection that the amount is payable from 01.04.2024, and thereafter pass an appropriate order in accordance with law.
5. The petitioner is directed to file the aforesaid application within 7 days from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. In turn, the concerned authorities shall decide the same in accordance with law. It is made clear that this Court has not expressed any opinion on the merits of the case.
6. With the aforesaid observations and directions, the present petition stands disposed of.
