WP(C) 8368/2003 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE B.P. KATAKEY JUDGMENT & ORDER (Oral) The petitioners, who are the Grade-III employees of Assam Admini stration Staff College, by the present petition has challenged the order dated 2 9th May, 2002 passed by the Director of Training, Assam Administrative Staff Col lege asking them to vacate the rooms which were earlier allotted to them and als o the order dated 30th July, 2002 passed by the same authority rejecting the app eal filed by the petitioners. The petitioners have also challenged the order da ted 16th September, 2003 issued by the said authority asking them to vacate thei r respective allotted rooms of the old Administrative Building by 30th September , 2003. [2] I have heard Mr. SN Sarma, learned senior counsel for the petiti oners and Mr. BJ Ghosh, learned State counsel appearing for the respondents. [3] Mr. Sarma, learned senior counsel for the petitioners submits th at though this writ petition was filed by the 4(four) Grade-III employees of the Assam Administrative Staff College, 1(one) petitioner, namely Sri Mahesh Ch. Bh attacharyya, has already vacated his allotted room, as he has shifted to his own house, in the meantime, and as such, the present writ petition is concerning th e remaining 3(three) writ petitioners. Mr. Sarma submits that the petitioners w ere allotted with the rooms under their possession by the orders dated 7th Novem ber, 2000; 10th July, 2001 and 11th July, 2001 issued by the Director of Trainin g, Assam Administrative Staff College on payment of 10% house rent and electrica l charges per month and accordingly, the petitioners are occupying the said room s as quarters since the year 2000-2001. It has also been submitted that the pur pose for which they were asked to vacate the room, namely to accommodate the Sec retariat Training School, as evident from the impugned order dated 16th Septembe r, 2003, presently does not exist, as the Secretariat Training School has, in th e meantime, been accommodated in Assam Administrative Staff College, as is evide nt from the communication dated 15th February, 2005 issued by the Director of Tr aining, Assam Administrative Staff College to the Principal Secretary, Governmen t of Assam, Administrative Reforms and Training Department. Mr. Sarma producing a copy of the communication dated 1st August, 2011 issued by the Director of Tr aining to the Principal Secretary, Government of Assam, Administrative Reforms a nd Training Department further submits that the budget allocation for the year 2 011-2012 has been made for vertical extension of Grade-III quarters in 4(four) B locks where the petitioners can be accommodated. The learned senior counsel, th erefore, submits that the present petition may be disposed of directing the resp ondent authorities to reconsider the matter in view of the changed circumstances and to pass necessary order. [4] Mr. Ghosh, learned State counsel submits that since the petition ers were allowed to occupy the earlier hostel in Block-A purely on temporary bas is with condition that they have to vacate the rooms as an when required, the pe titioners cannot have any grievance against the aforesaid orders passed asking t hem to vacate the rooms, which are required in connection with the Assam Adminis trative Staff College. The learned State counsel further submits that the rooms , which were earlier allotted to the petitioners and other similarly placed pers ons are required to accommodate the participants of the training courses, which is not meant to be used as quarters for Grade-III or any of the employees of Ass am Administrative Staff College. The learned State counsel, therefore, submits that the relief claimed in the present petition may not be granted. [5] It appears from the aforesaid orders dated 7th November, 2000; 1 0th July, 2001 and 11th July, 2001 passed by the Director of Training, Assam Adm inistrative Staff College that the petitioners were allowed to occupy the rooms in Block-A of the Hostel, which were lying vacant, on the condition of payment f or certain amount as rent and electricity charges and to vacate the said rooms a s and when required. It appears from the impugned order dated 29th May, 2002 th at the petitioners were asked to vacate the rooms earlier allotted to them for t he purpose of improving the Assam Administrative Staff College, Hostel Block-A. By order dated 30th July, 2002 passed by the Director of Training, the petition ers were informed that they have been asked to vacate the rooms earlier allotted to them for the aforesaid purpose and as those rooms are meant for the particip ants of the courses and not for the official accommodation of the employees. In the impugned order dated 16th September, 2003 passed by the Director asking the petitioners to vacate the rooms, another reason has been given, i.e. for shiftin g of the Secretariat Training School to the rooms, which were earlier allotted t o the petitioners. It also appears from the communication dated 15th February, 2005 issued by the Director of Training to the Principal Secretary, Administrati on Reforms and Training Department that the Secretariat Training School has alre ady been accommodated elsewhere. The communication dated 1st August, 2011 furth er reveals budget allocation under the plan for 2011-2012 for vertical extension of Grade-III quarters in 4(four) Blocks. The petitioners are admittedly occupyi ng the said rooms from the year 2000-2001 and continued to be so by virtue of th e interim order passed by this Court. [6] That being the position, I am of the view that the matter requir es reconsideration, because of the changed circumstances, by the authority. [7] The writ petition is, therefore, disposed of directing the Direc tor of Training, Assam Administrative Staff College to reconsider the matter rel ating to the orders passed asking the petitioners to vacate the rooms earlier al lotted to them, keeping in mind the necessity to take over possession of the sai d rooms for the purpose for which the building was constructed or any other purp ose in connection with the affairs of the Assam Administrative Staff College. S uch consideration and necessary orders shall be passed within 45(forty-five) day s from today. The petitioners or any one of them shall, within 10(ten) days fro m today, submit a certified copy of the order passed today before the said autho rity. Till such order, as directed is passed, the petitioners shall be allowed to possess the rooms, which were earlier allotted to them. [8] The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No costs.
