Central Coalfields Limited through its General Manager ( B & K) Kargali, District-Bokaro. 2. Superintending Engineer (E&M), CCL. 3. The Project Officer, CCL. 4. The Technical Director, CCL, Ranchi. …….Respondents. ---- Coram: HON'BLE MR JUSTICE RONGON MUKHOPADHYAY ---------- For the Petitioner : Mr. Ramakant Tiwari, Advocate For the CCL : Mr. Amit Kumar Das, Advocate ----- 05/28.1.2019 Heard the parties. The prayer in this writ application is for payment of outstanding bills amounting to Rs.57,880.00 along with some other dues. The petitioner claims that he is a registered owner of Mini Bus bearing registration no. BR 13-P/04957, which according to him, was hired by the respondent’s company on a quarterly payment system. It has been stated that an amount of Rs.67,190.00, which was raised by the petitioner was paid but the amount of Rs.57,800.00 was never paid apart from the bill for the next two quarters, for which the respondent authorities were also approached. A counter affidavit has been filed, in which it has been stated that the petitioner’s Mini Bus bearing registration no. BR 13-P/04957 had not been engaged by the Superintending Engineer (E&M) for the purpose of transportation of students. It has categorically been stated that for the period, in which the petitioner’s Mini Bus was engaged, payment has been made and that there is no outstanding bill of the petitioner pending in the office of the respondents. Since there appears to be a disputed question of fact, this Court is not inclined to pass any direction upon the respondents with respect to payment of the outstanding bill of the petitioner. The petitioner, if so advised, may approach the appropriate Forum for redressal of his grievances. With the aforesaid observations and directions, this writ petition stands disposed of.
