The State Of Bihar. 2. The District Magistrate, Patna. 3. The Deputy Development Cmmissioner, Patna. 4. The Sub Divisional Officer, Masaurhi. 5. The Block Development Officer, Masurhi, Distt.-Patna. 2 23.9.2011 The petitioner, who is a P.D.S. dealer within Masaurhi Block in the district of Patna, seeks quashing of the memo no.744 dated 29.7.2011 passed by the Deputy Development Commissioner, Patna whereby he has been directed to deposit a sum of Rs.8,93,089.30 towards the value of 651.89 quintals of undistributed rice under SGRY Scheme at the APL rate. The petitioner disputes the quantity of rice allotted to him. He submits that he had lifted only 651.89 quintals of rice from the Bihar State Food Corporation out of which he had already disputed 630 quintals of rice to the authorized agent on the basis of valid permits. Thus, he submits that at the most 21.89 quintals of undistributed rice remains with him. Counsel for the State submits that the submission of the petitioner is subject to verification. Earlier similar matters had come up before this Court in C.W.J.C. No. 711 of 2011 (Awadh Prasad Singh Vs. The 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 2 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 the instant writ petition. This writ petition is 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 55% of the value of 21.89 quintals of undistributed rice, as claimed by him, at Rs.10 per Kg. or the rice itself, if already not deposited within six weeks from today. This order would not come in the way of petitioner, if he wants to deposit the value of rice or rice itself in excess of 55%. KHAN (S. P. Singh, J.)
