IN THE HIGH CORUT OF UTTARAKHAND AT NAINITAL Writ Petition No. 182 of 2009 (M/S) Amar Singh (deceased) ……….. Petitioner Versus State of Uttaranchal. ………. Respondent …………….. ……………… Mr. Amar Nath Sharma, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. P.C. Bisht, Brief Holder for the State. Hon’ble V, K. GUPTA, C.J. The issue involved for consideration and adjudication in this appeal is very simple. Deceased Amar Singh, who has now been substituted by his legal heirs, was working as a Chaukidar. Pursuant to the termination of his employment, he was asked to vacate the accommodation allotment to him in his capacity as Chaukidar. Because he did not do so, the Prescribed Authority under the U.P. Public Premises (Eviction of Unauthorized Occupants) Act, 1971 declared him as an unauthorized occupant and ordered his eviction form the accommodation in question. This order is under challenge in this petition filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. It is undisputed case of the petitioners before this Court that Amar Singh, deceased petitioner, was allotted the accommodation in his capacity as a Chaukidar. After his death, the question of accommodation being retained by his Legal Representatives does not arise, because the accommodation is meant for the use by serving Chaukidars in connection with the discharge of their official duties. The petition has no merit and is dismissed. Interim stay is vacated. (V.K. Gupta, C. J.) 01.04.2009 A
