IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.1376 of 2009 Ramadhar Singh . Versus The State Of Bihar & Ors . ----------- 2. 30.06.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner, a daily wager is stated to have been discharged from service on 15.1.2002. The claim for arrears of wages relates to the period 30.3.1999 to 5.6.2001. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that by letter No. 774 dated 14.12.2001 requisition was sent for payment to him of Rs. 47,307/- for the period in question but payment was still not made. The respondents in their counter affidavit state that the requisition was examined by the Liability Committee which allowed certain claims and rejected others as detailed in Paragraphs 11 and 12 of their addidavit. Perhaps if the respondents had annexed the report of the Liability Committee to the counter affidavit and left the matter for consideration by the Court rather than confronting the Court with their own conclusions, the litigation could have brought to a finality today. Let the petitioner appear along with a copy of the 2 present order before the Executive Engineer, Minor Irrigation Division, Sitamarhi who shall within two weeks from that date furnish a copy of the report of the Liability Committee to the petitioner. If so advised, the petitioner may represent before the competent authority within a maximum period of 30 days from the date when the report is made available to him. He shall then be granted a personal and/or representative hearing and fresh, reasoned and speaking order be passed. The Court considers it proper to pass the aforesaid order keeping in mind that the claim arises by the petitioner who has a limited resources to agitate his grievances. The admitted dues are directed to be paid forthwith. The writ application stands disposed with the aforesaid observation. P. Kumar ( Navin Sinha, J. )
