Civil Writ Petition No. 8182 of 2010 -1- IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No. 8182 of 2010 M/s Yamuna State Sales Agency & others ...Petitioners Versus State of Haryana and others ...Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RANJIT SINGH Present: Mr. Brijender Kaushik, Advocate, for the petitioners. Mr. S.S. Patter, DAG, Haryana for the State. Mr. N.K. Joshi, Advocate, for respondent Nos.2 to 4. RANJIT SINGH J. The prayer in the writ petition is for quashing the demand notices dated 17.8.2009 and 16.2.2010. The petitioners were allotted plots in an open auction held on 28.11.2005. The grievance of the petitioners is that no amenities or development in the area have been done and the respondents have demanded an amount by charging interest and penalty from them. In response to the notice, the respondents have filed reply. As per the respondents, the plots were allotted to the petitioners in an open auction and all the facilities have already been provided in the New Grain Market. It is, accordingly, stated that the writ petition is not maintainable. Besides it is also pointed out that the writ petition deserves to be dismissed on the ground that the Civil Writ Petition No. 8182 of 2010 -2- petitioners have an efficacious alternative remedy under Section 40 of the Punjab Agricultural Markets Act, 1961 as applicable to the State of Haryana. As per this Section, the petitioners can file revision against the demand notice. Since the petitioners have an alternative efficacious remedy of filing revision, which they can easily invoke, the present writ petition is, accordingly, disposed of relegating the petitioners to exercise their alternative remedy of filing revision petition.
