WP(C) 5547/2011 BEFORE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE A.K. GOSWAMI By an order dated 4/11/2011, this Court, required the Chief Executive Officer, B arpeta Zilla Parishad to furnish necessary instructions to the learned State cou nsel. On 18/11/2011, the learned State counsel prayed for 2 weeks’ time to file affidavit. No affidavit was filed and again when the matter was listed on 5/12/2 011, the learned counsel prays for time till 14/12/2011 to file affidavit. Howev er, till today no affidavit has been filed. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that he would be satisfied, in th e circumstances, if a direction is issued to respondent No.1 to dispose of his r epresentation dated 19/10/2011. The projected case of the petitioner is that, as of today, in view of withdrawal of tenders, the petitioner has emerged as the highest bidder pursuant to Notice Inviting Tender dated 12/5/2011, in respect of Kalgachia Hat. The grievance exp ressed is that authorities have not brought the tendering process of settlement to a logical end by issuing necessary order of settlement in respect of the afor esaid hat. Mr. R.K. Bora, learned State counsel who appears today submits that he would hav e no objection if respondent No.1 is directed to consider the representation dat ed 19/10/2011 (Annexure-5) of the petitioner in accordance with law within a per iod of 2 (two) weeks from today. Considering the submissions of the learned counsel for the parties, and having r egard to the fact that almost 6 months have already gone out of settlement perio d of one year, I direct the respondent No.1 to consider and dispose of the repre sentation dated 19/10/2011, within a period of 2 weeks from the date of receipt of certified copy of this order along with a copy of the writ petition, to be fu rnished to the respondent No.1 by the writ petitioner.
