IN THE HIGH COURT OF UTTARAKHAND AT NAINITAL Writ Petition No. 724 of 2010 (M/S) Gopal Ram S/O Sri Dhani Ram and two others. ….. Petitioners. Versus Union of India through Ministry of Finance New Delhi and two Others ……Respondents. Mr. Vinod Tiwari, Advocate, learned counsel for the petitioners. Mr. B.P.S. Mer, Learned Standing Counsel for the Union of India-respondent no.1 Mr. K.P. Upadhyay, Learned Addl. Chief Standing Counsel for the respondents No.2. Date May 21, 2010 Hon’ble B.S. Verma, J. (Stay Application No.3878 of 2010) Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and perused the record. By means of this writ petition, the petitioners have sought a writ in the nature of certiorari quashing the impugned recovery citations dated 5-5-2010 issued by the respondent No.2 (Annexure No.1 to the petition). Further prayer for a writ of mandamus directing the respondent no. 3-Sadhan Sahkari Samiti Ltd. Maha Kaleshwar, Chaukhutia Almora not to demand the loan amount from the petitioners has been made. In the course of arguments, the learned counsel for the petitioners urged that the petitioners may be given liberty to make a representation before the respondent no.3 as well as the Recovery Officer for redressal of their grievance and the writ petition may be disposed of today itself. Prayer is innocuous. The petitioners may make representations before respondent no. 3-Sadhan Sahkari Samiti Ltd. Maha Kaleshwar, Chaukhutia Almora, through its Chairman/Secretary and also before the Recovery Officer, i.e. Tehsildar Chaukhutia, district Almora. If the representations are made, the respondents shall take appropriate decision thereon, after hearing the petitioners. With the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of finally. (B.S. Verma, J.) RCP
