VERSUS 1. The Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd. through its Principal General Manager, Telecom District-Patna, Telephone Bhawan, R/Block, Patna-1. 2. The Principal General Manager, Telecom District-Patna. 3. The Divisional Engineer (Planning), B.S.N.L., Patna. -Respondents. ----------- For the Petitioner : Mr. Vinay Mistry, Advocate. For the B.S.N.L. : Mrs. Renuka Sharma, Advocate. ------------ 06 22.05.2009 The petitioner had filed this writ petition for issuance of a direction to the Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) for refunding the security deposit in relation to three contracts which the petitioner had long back successfully and satisfactorily completed. These refunds were due long back and were not disputed. In the counter affidavit filed by the BSNL it is stated that there were enquiries by the Vigilance which delayed the processing for refund. Today, Mrs. Renuka Sharma, learned counsel for the BSNL very fairly hands over two cheques of Rs. 29,000/- and Rs. 32,157/- payable in favour of the petitioner to the learned counsel for the petitioner in respect of two contracts. In respect of third contract, wherein security to the extent of Rs. 97,500/- it is stated in relation thereof, file has been seized by the Central Bureau of Investigation in another matter not concerning with the petitioner, they are unable to process the claim accordingly. As the amount is not in dispute, I direct the authorities 2 of BSNL to approach the Central Bureau of Investigation once again with orders of this Court with a request to permit to make copies of the relevant file and once they are made available immediately process and refund the petitioner the amount, as above mentioned. It is expected that the authorities of Central Bureau of Investigation would cooperate in this matter and ensure that within 15 days of application by BSNL to them in this regard the copies of the relevant registers/files which is made available to the BSNL authorities, BSNL authorities would within one month thereafter ensure that the said refund of Rs. 97,500/- is made to the petitioner. With these observations and directions, the writ petition stands disposed of. Trivedi/ (Navaniti Prasad Singh, J.)
