IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.10591 of 2007 SAURABH PRAKASH Versus TILKA MANJHI BHAGALPUR UNIVERSITY ----------- 06 04.09.2008 For beautification of Tilka Manjhi University at Bhagalpur petitioner was required to supply flower plants. Petitioner made the supply satisfactorily and raised bills, which as usual are pending consideration for payment since last almost four years. It is virtually not disputed that supply order was issued and supplies made but apparently there is some unresolved dispute with regard to the signature of the petitioner on the bills submitted. In my view, four years was a long time to resolve such a matter and the same could be done easily within a day if the petitioner was asked to be present and asked whether he accepts and disputes the signature. For such a minor issue the matter remains pending and this Court troubled. Having heard learned counsels, I dispose of the writ petition with a direction that within one month from production of copy of this order before the Vice-Chancellor of the University, the Vice-Chancellor would take decision in the matter and if payment is due would ensure that the payment would be made within one month, thereafter, and in case for any reason she finds that payment cannot be made she would communicate the same in writing to the petitioner within the said period itself. This disposes of the writ petition. Trivedi/ (Navaniti Prasad Singh,J.)
