IN THE HIGH COURT OF HIMACHAL PRADESH, SHIMLA. CWP No. 3994 of 2011. Decided on: September 15, 2011. Kunta Devi Vrs. State of HP & ors. Coram The Hon’ble Mr. Justice Kurian Joseph, Chief Justice. The Hon’ble Mr. Justice Rajiv Sharma, Judge. For the petitioner: Mr. R.R.Rahi, Advocate. For the Respondents: Mr. R.K.Bawa, AG, with Mr. J.K.Verma, Dy. AG. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Justice Kurian Joseph, C.J. (Oral) Sh. Joginder Gupta, CDPO, Nalagarh, is present. It is admitted that there has been some delay in paying the eligible remuneration to the petitioner. According to him, he is not responsible for the delay. But the fact remains that the poor Aanganwari Worker has been put to unnecessary harassment and she has to bear the cost of the litigation for no fault on her part. Somebody is and should be made responsible for this. Since Sh. Joginder Gupta, says that he is not the person responsible for the delay, we direct the District Programme Officer, Solan, to conduct an inquiry as to who is the person responsible for the delay in disbursing the eligible benefits to the petitioner and fix the liability on that person to an amount of ` 5,000/- and that amount shall be realized from the erring officer(s)/official(s) and paid to the petitioner. This shall be done within four months and report in that behalf shall be filed before this Court within another one month. 2. With the above observations, the Writ Petition is disposed of, so also the pending application(s). (Justice Kurian Joseph), Chief Justice. September 15, 2011.
