IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA MJC No.3635 of 2009 KAMTANATH TIWARI son of late Shri Bachha Prasad Tiwary, resident of village Pipra, P.O. Mustaphabad P.S. Goriya Kothi, District Siwan presently residing at P.O. Bishunpur Pakari, P.S. Phulwarisharif, District Patna-2. Versus 1.THE STATE OF BIHAR 2.Mr. Ram Pravesh Sharma the Vice Chancellor J.P. University, Chapra. 3.Mr. Vijay Pratap Singh the Registrar J.P. University. 4.Mr. Rajdeo Singh, the vice Chancellor, B.R.A. Bihar University, Muzaffarpur. 5.Mr. Ashok Kumar Shrivastava, the Registrar, J.P. university. ----------- 2 31/3/2010 Heard counsel for the petitioner, counsel for the B.R. Ambedkar University as also J.P. University. Petitioner is aggrieved only on account of non compliance of order of this Court dated 9.8.2007, relevant portion whereof reads as follows:- “The University is reminded that in the event it has received the third instalment but has not paid the same to the petitioner to the extent of his entitlement, the University is in contempt and accordingly the petitioner shall be entitled to take appropriate action as he may deem fit and proper.” While counsel for the B.R.A Bihar University would take a plea that on funds being received from the State Government, the share of the J.P. University to the extent of 50 lacs has already been passed on it counsel appearing on behalf of J.P. University accepting such receipt of fund submits that the moment the petitioner would now produce necessary documents required for making such payment, the same would be processed 2 and paid within a period of one week from the date of production of such documents. Mr. Ajoy Kumar, learned counsel representing the J.P. University, in fact, would submit that a letter has also been written to this effect to the petitioner by the University. At this stage, counsel for the petitioner would interrupt to say that in fact such letter has already been replied by the petitioner and necessary documents have been given. Thus now the dispute, in fact, seems to be reduced only to making payment of amount to the petitioner. Therefore this Court in order to shorten the agony of the petitioner would direct him to produced another copy of the documents as desired by J.P. University and thereafter the J.P. University will be under obligation to release payment of the petitioner within a period of seven days from the date of receipt of such document. It is made clear that if this time the authorities of J.P. University, having accepted before this Court to have received the amount of third installment, would refuse payment of the petitioner its Vice-Chancellor Registrar as also the Finance Officer of the said University shall become personally liable for contempt of this Court. With the aforementioned observation/direction this application is disposed of. Abhay Kumar ( Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
