The petitioner, who is the licensee under the 1984 Unification Order as well as under the Public Distribution System (Control) Order, 2001 prays for quashing notice dated 24.6.2011, by which the Block Development Officer, Gogri has directed to refund the value of undistributed rice under SGRY and FFW scheme at APL rate. The petitioner does not dispute that he had been supplied 480 quintal of rice. However, the same has remained lying with him for long as no valid permit had been issued for its supply. The petitioner further states that his Panchayat is flood prone and there is no proper godown for storage of rice. Earlier similar matters had come up before this Court in C.W.J.C. No. 711 of 2011 (Awadh Prasad Singh Vs. The 2 State of Bihar & Ors.) & C.W.J.C. No. 757 of 2011 (Suresh Prasad @ Raj Kumar Vs. The State of Bihar & Ors.). The aforesaid writ applications have been disposed of by order dated 06.07.2011 after noticing the submissions of learned counsel for the parties. As the facts and issues are common, the order dated 06.07.2011 passed in C.W.J.C. No. 711 of 2011 and C.W.J.C. No. 757 of 2011 would also govern this writ application as well. This writ petition is, accordingly, disposed of in terms of the order dated 06.07.2011 passed in C.W.J.C. No. 711 of 2011 and C.W.J.C. No. 757 of 2011 including interim protection as mentioned therein, with the condition that the petitioner would either deposit 15% of the value of undistributed rice at Rs.10/- per kilogram or the rice itself in present form, if already not deposited.
