MC 3255/2010 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE AMITAVA ROY Heard Mr. Choudhury, learned counsel for the applicant and Mr. Kalita, l earned senior counsel for the opposite party/writ petitioner. The instant application is for modification of the terms of payment by t he applicant Board of the opposite party(s) dues receivable from it. By order da ted 16.8.2010 an amount of Rs. 5,42,825/- worked out by the Board as the opposit e party(s) dues was directed to be disbursed on the following terms :- 1. Rs. 1,50,000/- be paid within two weeks; 2. Remaining amount be paid in instalments of Rs. 35,000/- per month. The applicant Board has cited financial stringency in endorsement of its request for reducing the rigor of the above terms so as to facilitate the payme nts. In course of arguments, Mr. Choudhury has urged that the amount of insta lments be reduced to Rs. 20,000/- per month. He has apprised this Court that mea nwhile Rs. 1,50,000/- has been paid to the opposite party in the month of August 2010. Mr. Kalita while admitting receipt of Rs. 1,50,000/- has resisted the ap plicant’s prayer for reduction in the amount of instalments. Upon hearing the learned counsel for the parties and on consideration of the averments made in the application, this Court is of the view that the afore mentioned terms be relaxed little more in order to facilitate payment of the rem aining dues of the opposite party. Having regard to the fact that Rs. 1,50,000/- has already been paid, it is ordered that the applicant Board would make payment of the instalments for th e months of September, October and November, 2010 at the rate of Rs. 35,000/- by 7.12.2010 and thereafter the monthly instalments would be paid at the rate of R s. 20,000/- per month. The order dated 16.8.2010 stands modified to the extent indicated herein above. Misc. Case is disposed accordingly.
