IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C.W.P. No. 1039 of 2008. Date of Decision: 26th March, 2009. Kuldip Rai Prabhakar & Ors. ....Petitioners through Mr. Mandeep Kaushik, Advocate Versus State of Punjab & Ors. ..Respondents through Mr. N.S.Panwar, Addl.AG, Punjab. CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SURYA KANT. 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? SURYA KANT, J. [ORAL) The petitioners seek a direction for allotment of Sites in the New Judicial Court Complex at Ludhiana for working as Draftsman-cum-Surveyor-cum-Approved Valuers/Building Experts. The allotment has been sought primarily on the ground that these activities were being earlier carried out by their father – late Hakikat Rai Prabhakar. Notice of motion was issued and in response thereto, the respondents have filed their reply, inter-alia, pointing out that the authorization given to the petitioners had expired on 31.3.2006. The petitioners on the other hand, state that they have applied for renewal of the licences but the matter is pending consideration before the authorities concerned. Meanwhile, it is stated by learned counsel for the petitioners, that the Deputy Commissioner, Ludhiana has permitted them to raise/construct Sheds No. 50,51 and 52, however, no formal allotment letter has been issued in their favour. Having heard learned counsel for the parties for some time and keeping in view the stand taken on behalf of the petitioners, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition with a direction to the Deputy Commissioner, Ludhiana to dispose of the pending application[s], if any, moved by the petitioners for renewal of their licences after 31.3.2006. The needful shall be done within three months from the date a certified copy of this order is received. Similarly, the Deputy Commissioner, Ludhiana shall also verify the claim of the petitioners regarding allotment of Shed Sites No. 50, 51 and 52 and if so required, issue the allotment letters within the aforementioned stipulated period. Disposed of. Dasti. March 26, 2009. ( SURYA KANT ) dinesh JUDGE
