WP(C) 3831/2011 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE B.P. KATAKEY Heard Mr. KD Chetri, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mrs. HM Phukan, lear ned State counsel appearing for the respondent Nos.1, 4 and 5. The petitioner, who is an Executive Member of Tiwa Autonomous Council, by the pr esent petition has challenged the order dated 5th May, 2011 issued by the Princi pal Secretary, Tiwa Autonomous Council awarding the contract in favour of the re spondent No.6, on the ground that such order was passed by the Principal Secreta ry without the concurrence/approval of the Council, though such concurrence/appr oval is required to be obtained before issuance of any order. According to the petitioner, at the earlier occasion also such irregularities/il legalities were committed by the Principal Secretary and thereafter, pursuant to the direction issued by the Commissioner & Secretary on 21st February, 2011, su ch work orders/ supply orders were cancelled by the Principal Secretary vide ord er dated 23rd February, 2011. It is also the case of the petitioner that the Pri ncipal Secretary is again committing the same mistake, as was done in the month of February, 2011. Admittedly the petitioner is yet to approach the Commissioner & Secretary to the Government of Assam, WPT & BC Department ventilating his grievances relating to the authority of the Principal Secretary to issue the work order dated 5th May, 2011 allegedly issued without approval/concurrence of the Council. It also app ears that by the impugned order dated 5th May, 2011, the work order was directed to be carried out within a period of 7 (seven) days from the date of issuance o f such order. According to the petitioner, the materials have already been suppl ied though have not been distributed to the beneficiaries. Since the petitioner claims that such an illegality is being committed by the Pr incipal Secretary, Tiwa Autonomous Council, the petitioner has to approach the C ommissioner & Secretary, WPT & BC Department ventilating his grievances and henc e, the writ petition is disposed of giving liberty to the petitioner to approach the Commissioner & Secretary, WPT & BC Department, Government of Assam by way o f a representation and if such a representation is made, the Commissioner & Secr etary shall definitely consider the same and pass necessary order. The Commissi oner & Secretary shall also be served with a copy of the order passed today alon gwith the copies of the writ petition and its annexures appended thereto. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No costs.
