WP(C) 1860/2011 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR.JUSTICE T.VAIPHEI Heard Mr.J.Abedin, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mrs.B.L.Singh, learned State Counsel. The petitioner purchased a TATA winger vehicle bearing registration No. As 01/DC 1042 under Hire Purchase Agreement with a finance company and was grant ed permit for plying the same between Khanapara, Guwahati to Morigaon w.e.f. 2.1 .2011. Without his consent, his above mentioned vehicle was requisitioned by the Respondent No.4 on 18.2.2011 and used the same for 4 days by travelling 1210 km s ; which was released on 21.2.2011 by issuing car diary. When the petitioner ap proached the Respondent No.4 for payment of the requisition bill, he was asked t o come after 4/5 months as the Deptt., at that point of time, was preparing the bills only for the year 2010. The petitioner is required to pay monthly instalme nt @ Rs.13,500.00 in terms of Hire Purchase Agreement. Non payment of the requis ition bill by the Respondent No.4 has caused enormous problem for the petitioner hampering regular payment of his monthly installments. The petitioner is now ap prehending requisition of his vehicle again without first clearing his pending r equisition bill. This is how this writ petition filed. On instruction, the learned State Counsel has informed the Court that f or election purpose, vehicles are not requisitioned but are taken on hire basis and no body is forced to give their vehicle. If that is so, the apprehension of the petitioner, at this stage, appears to be misplaced. However, the learned cou nsel for the petitioner submits that after the Election also, the respondent aut horities are likely to requisition his vehicle without first clearing his outsta nding bills for requisition of his vehicle. This cannot be done in terms of the decision of this Court in Seema Moref Vs State of Assam and ors reported in 1998 (4) GLT 147. This writ petition is, therefore, disposed of by directing the responden t authorities not to requisition the vehicle of the petitioner unless his outsta nding bills for requisitioning his vehicle earlier are cleared. It is ordered ac cordingly.
