Respondents **** CORAM : HON’BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT **** 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? **** Present: Mr. Hemant Saini, Advocate for the petitioner ***** SURYA KANT J. (ORAL) (1). The petitioner is aggrieved by the notice dated 13.01.2011 (Annexure P2) whereby he has been directed to deposit a sum of Rs.49,43,886/- towards the outstanding balance and interest in respect of shop No.16 situated at Old Block Shaheed Bhagat Singh Market, Amritsar. The petitioner claims that the principal amount has already been deposited by the original allottee/him and that the compound interest has been imposed instead of penal interest as per the terms and conditions of the allotment. (2). Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner at some length, suffice it to observe that the petitioner may represent to the authorities raising all the issues which CWP No.2213 of 2011.doc - 2 – shall be considered by the competent authority in accordance with the Rules/law. (3). However in the interest of justice, it appears that some more time can be granted to the petitioner to deposit the demanded amount. Consequently, it is directed that in case the petitioner deposits Rs.25 lacs along with his representation, the Municipal Corporation, Amritsar shall dispose of his representation as early as possible by passing a speaking order but meanwhile shall not take any coercive/penal action against the petitioner. (4). In the event of any adverse decision, two week’s time shall be granted to the petitioner to deposit the balance amount. (5). Ordered accordingly.
