JUSTICE SURYA KANT Present : Mr. Sandeep Sharma, Advocate, for the petitioner. SURYA KANT, J. (ORAL) The petitioner is aggrieved at the order dated 19.05.2008 of the Municipal Corporation, Faridabad, whereby the charges to be taken for permitting to install prefabricated liquor vends on the ear-marked sites, have been determined. The petitioner's grievance is that the rent/user charges fixed by the Municipal Corporation, Faridabad, are highly exorbitant and contrary to the government/HUDA policy. It is also his case that Rs.9,34,500/- demanded from the petitioner by the respondents were deposited under protest. The petitioner accordingly seeks a direction to the respondents for re- determination of the rental/user charges for the site to be used as a liquor vend in terms of the license awarded to him by the Excise and Taxation Department on 17.04.2009. C.W.P NO. 6903 OF 2009 -2- The petitioner, however, has rushed to this Court without approaching the respondents along with the copy of HUDA policy or any other material in support of his claim that the user charges need to be rationalized by the respondents. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of with liberty to the petitioner to represent before respondent NO.2 along with copies of the Policy/Circular being relied upon by him. On receipt of such representation, respondent No.2 is directed to consider and dispose of the same in accordance with government policy/ rational criteria laid down by the Municipal Corporation/HUDA, as the case may be, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of certified copy of this order. Disposed of. Let a copy of this order be given dasti on payment of usual charges. MAY 06, 2009 (SURYA KANT) shalini JUDGE
