IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.13824 of 2011 Ugra Narayan Sah, S/O Late Jagdish Chandra Sah, R/O Vill.- Pipra, P.S.- Dandkhora, Distt.- Katihar. . . . . . Petitioner. Versus 1. The State of Bihar 2. The District Magistrate, Katihar 3. The Deputy Development Commissioner, Katihar 4. The Block Development Officer, Hasanganj, Katihar 5. The Programme Officer Hasanganj, Katihar 6. The Block Supply Office, Hasanganj, Katihar. . . Respondents. ----------- 2 08.09.2011 The petitioner is a P.D.S. dealer under Hasanganj Block in the district of Katihar. The petitioner seeks quashing of letter no.250 dated 05.07.2011 passed by the Programme Officer, Hasanganj, Katihar, whereby he has been directed to return the value of undistributed rice at APL rate. The petitioner submits that the notice does not specify the quantity of rice either allotted to him or the quantity which has remained undistributed with him. In the facts and circumstances of the case, I find that the impugned order is vague as it does not specify either the quantity of rice that was allotted or the quantity of rice that would still remain with the petitioner. As such, the impugned order dated 05.07.2011 is set aside with a direction to the Programme Officer, Hasanganj Block in the district of Katihar to issue fresh notice specifying the quantity of rice that would remain undistributed with the petitioner within four weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. Till then, no coercive steps would be taken against the petitioner. With the aforesaid observations and directions, 2 this writ petition stands disposed of. Let a copy of this order be transmitted to the Programme Officer, Hasanganj, Katihar. Uday/ (Samarendra Pratap Singh, J.)
