The petitioner deposited a sum of Rs.2,40,000/- towards E.M.D. and F.S.D. with the respondents for various works allotted to him. It is the case of the petitioner that he completed all the works and therefore, he is entitled to get back his E.M.D. and F.S.D. amounts from the respondents. It is his further case that the Chief Engineer, RWS, Hyderabad, has already issued proceedings No. B1(1)/2410/2003, dated 20.01.2004, for release of the E.M.D. and F.S.D. amounts and thereafter the Executive Engineer (RWS), Panchayat Raj Department, Karimnagar District, at Karimnagar-2nd respondent addressed a letter to the Pay and Accounts Officer, L.M.D.Colony, at Karimnagar-3rd respondent for repayment of E.M.D. and F.S.D. Since the respondents have not given effect to the orders passed by the Chief Engineer (RWS), Hyderabad, in releasing the E.M.D. and F.S.D. amounts, the petitioner has chosen to file this writ petition. 3. Heard learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and learned Government Pleader for Panchayat Raj and Rural Development appearing for the respondents. 4. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner completed all the contract works and therefore, he is entitled to get back his E.M.D. and F.S.D. amounts. He further submits that the Chief Engineer (RWS), Hyderabad, has issued proceedings for release of the E.M.D. and F.S.D. amounts, but, the same have not been given effect and thus the petitioner is constrained to approach this Court. 5. Learned Government Pleader for Panchayat Raj and Rural Development appearing for the respondents, on instructions from the respondents, submits that notices have been issued to the petitioner to submit the details of E.M.D. and F.S.D. particulars, but, the petitioner has not furnished the same and therefore, E.M.D. and F.S.D. amounts could not be paid.
