IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No 14912 of 2009 1. RUKMANI DEVI AGARWAL W/O SRI LAXMI NARAYAN AGARWAL R/O M.G. ROAD, KATIHAR, P.S. KATIHAR, DISTT- KATIHAR Versus 1. THE CHIEF GENERAL MANAGER, LOCAL HEAD OFFICE, S.B.I. AT PATNA , BIHAR 2. REGIONAL MANAGER, S.B.I. AT PURNEA, P.S. PURNEA, P.O PURNEA,DISTT- PURNEA 3. MANAGER, S.B.I. M.G. ROAD BRANCH, P.S. KATIHAR, P.O. KATIHAR, DISTT- KATIHAR *** For the petitioner : M/s Arun Kr Mandal & Awadhesh Kr Mishra, Advocates For the respondents : Mr S D Sanjay, Advocate *** 2 05.01.2010 It is surprising that an Organization like State Bank of India chooses to occupy premises and refuses to enhance rent inspite of orders of statutory authorities forcing persons like the petitioner, who is an old lady above 70 years of age, to come to this Court. It is only when the writ petition is filed, State Bank of India decides to comply with the orders of statutory authorities and pay up the arrears. As the arrears have been paid, it is expected that from now, rent will be paid on month to month basis punctually. It may be noted that already an eviction suit is pending for defaults which now virtually stands admitted by their own conduct. The said suit would proceed without being prejudiced by any observation made in this proceeding. As substantially, grievance of the petitioner for the time being has been met, the writ petition is, accordingly, disposed of. M.E.H./ (Navaniti Prasad Singh)
