C.W.P. No. 12227 of 2011 (1) IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.W.P. No. 12227 of 2011 DATE OF DECISION: 15.07.2011 Gobinder Singh and others ..........Petitioners Versus State of Punjab and others ..........Respondents BEFORE:- HON'BLE MRS. JUSTICE DAYA CHAUDHARY Present:- Mr. Parminder Paul Sharma, Advocate for the petitioners. **** DAYA CHAUDHARY, J. The present petition has been filed by the petitioners, who are farmers of village Gamurghat, for issuing directions to the respondents to decide the representation filed by them, which is annexed as Annexure P-7 with the petition, in view of the directions issued by this Court in C.W.P. No. 10399 of 2011. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners are the affected parties and no hearing whatsoever was given to them and no action has been taken on the representation filed by them and nothing has been conveyed to them. Learned counsel for the petitioners also submits that the petitioners would be satisfied in case the directions are issued to decide the representation filed by them and the petitioners being the affected party be heard before disposal of the representation. Heard. Admittedly, C.W.P. No. 10399 of 2011 was filed by one Sewa C.W.P. No. 12227 of 2011 (2) Singh before this Court for issuance of direction to the respondents to construct minor/outlet in Village Gamurghat to save the agricultural produce and the petitioners as well as other villagers from flood water and to provide minor as per Resolution dated 16.8.2010 passed by Gram Panchayat Gamurghat. The said petition came up for hearing before this Court on 2.6.2011, which was disposed of with a direction to respondents No.2 and 3 to take decision on Resolution dated 16.8.2010 passed by Gram Panchayat and representation dated 6.1.2011 made by the petitioner within a period of two months from the date of receipt of the copy of the order. It was also mentioned in the said order that decision be taken after inspection of the spot and after taking into consideration all parameters after affording opportunity of hearing to the villagers/persons likely to be affected by the flood. The grievance of the petitioners is that they are also affected parties and have also submitted representations which are still pending with respondents No.2 and 3 and no action has been taken thereon. Learned counsel for the petitioners also submits that although no order has been passed by the respondents in compliance of the directions issued in C.W.P. No. 10399 of 2011 but the petitioners being the affected party have not been heard so far and no order has been passed on their representation. The only prayer of the petitioners is that before passing any order in the said petition, their representations be considered and action be taken accordingly so that their crops be not affected during rainy season. Although, keeping in view the directions already issued in C.W.P. No. 10399 of 2011, no further direction is required as it has already been mentioned in the order that all affected parties be heard before taking any action but keeping in view the stand of the petitioners in the present petition that their representation is still pending and no action has been C.W.P. No. 12227 of 2011 (3) taken, the present petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondents to look into the representation filed by the petitioners and take necessary necessary in accordance with law after hearing the petitioners. Disposed of accordingly. July 15, 2011 (DAYA CHAUDHARY) pooja JUDGE Note:-Whether this case is to be referred to the Reporter .......Yes/No
