IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Miscellaneous Jurisdiction Case No.2628 of 2010 Md. Alam, son of late Md. Sadik, resident of village Dubey Tolla Bagha, P.S. Bagha, District West Champaran … Petitioner Versus 1. The State of Bihar, through its Chief Secretary 2. Ramesh Lal Collector, West Champaran, Betia 3. Gautam Paswan, the District Land Acquisition Officer, West Champaran, Betia 4. Lalan Prasad Sinha, Managing Director Bihar State Hydel Power Corporation Sone Bhawan, Patna … Opp.Parties ---------------------------------- 5. 19.9.2011 Having heard counsel for the parties and taking into account that the payment of Rs. 6,14,525/- towards compensation for the land acquired has already been paid by the Corporation to the petitioner, there would be nothing left by way of contempt, inasmuch as the opposite party Corporation has ultimately made the payment of amount requisitioned by the District Land Acquisition Officer. The remaining grievance of Mr. Sandeep Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioner, that the petitioner is still entitled for payment of interest over the principal amount of Rs. 3,34,750/- for the period 22.7.2009 to 20.9.2010, the latter being the date of actual payment of amount of Rs, 6,14,525/- consisting of both principal amount and the interest upto 22.7.2009, needs to be looked into however, is to be still looked into by the opposite party no. 3, the District Land Acquisition Officer, Bettiah who had actually made requisition for such amount of Rs. 6,14,525 from the Corporation. Counsel for the Corporation in this regard has 2 submitted that as soon as the D.L.A.O., Bettiah (opposite party no. 3) will make a requisition, the balance amount will be deposited in the funds of the Bettiah Collectorate in order to enable the opposite party no. 3 to make payment to the petitioner. That being so, this Court would dispose of this contempt application with a direction to O.P.No.3 to make a supplementary demand towards the interest for the period 22.7.2009 to 20.9.2010 over the principal amount of Rs. 3,34,750/- within a period of one month from the date of receipt/ production of a copy of this order and the Corporation thereafter would be under obligation to deposit the said requisitioned amount within one month from the date of receipt of requisition of the opposite party no. 3. The payment upon receipt of such amount from the Corporation also must be made to the petitioner by the opposite party no. 3 in next one month. With the aforesaid observations and direction this application is disposed of. (Mihir Kumar Jha,J.) Surendra/
