Patna High Court – Orders<\/div>\n
Suresh Thakur vs The State Of Bihar &Amp; Ors on 3 December, 2010<\/div>\n
             IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA\n                             CWJC No 10591 of 2006\n             Suresh Thakur, son of late Radha Ballabh Thakur, resident of\n             Village - Sonepur, P S - Narpatganj, District - Araria, presently\n             Posted as a Mohrir at Sub Divisional Irrigation Office, Banka under\n             Executive Engineer, Irrigation Division, Bhagalpur -           Petitioner\n                                       Versus\n         1    The State of Bihar through Commissioner -cum- Secretary, Water Resources\n              Department, Government of Bihar, Patna\n         2    Chief Engineer, Irrigation, Bhagalpur, District - Bhagalpur\n         3    Superintending Engineer, Canal Circle, Saharsa, District - Saharsa\n         4    Executive Engineer, Irrigation Division, Bhagalpur\n         5    Executive Engineer, Irrigation Division, Birpur, District - Supaul\n         6    Executive Engineer, Irrigation Division, Araria       -       Respondents\n                                      -----------\n<\/pre>\n
2   03.12.2010                 The petitioner was posted at Araria from where he was<\/p>\n
                 transferred to Bhagalpur (Irrigation Office, Banka) vide notification dated<\/p>\n
                 26.06.1992. Immediately thereafter, on 03.07.1992, he was allotted an<\/p>\n
                 accommodation at Bathnaha at Araria itself though he had already been<\/p>\n
                 transferred to Bhagalpur Division.     He continued to occupy the said<\/p>\n
                 accommodation till 31.08.2003. By the impugned order, as contained in<\/p>\n
                 Annexure-9, petitioner has been served with a notice of demand issued by<\/p>\n
                 the Executive Engineer, Irrigation Division, Bhagalpur intimating that he<\/p>\n
                 was occupying accommodation No F\/2 of which monthly rent was Rs<\/p>\n
                 66.40 unauthorisedly after his transfer from 01.05.1992 to 31.08.2003<\/p>\n
                 and, as such, he was liable to pay penal rent for the said period which<\/p>\n
                 totals to Rs 1,35,456\/- which is to be realised from him in 32 equal<\/p>\n
                 monthly instalments of Rs 4,233\/- each. Petitioner’s case is that there was<\/p>\n
                 surplus accommodation available at Araria and, as such, it was upon<\/p>\n
                 departmental allotment he was occupying it though transferred to another<\/p>\n
                 Division. The allotment itself was made after his transfer. As such, it<\/p>\n
                 cannot be said that he was in unauthorised occupation thereof.         The
\n                         2<\/span><\/p>\n
second contention of the petitioner is that a reference to last pay certificate<\/p>\n
would show that petitioner was being charged rent for the accommodation<\/p>\n
at the rate of Rs 16.60 per month but now the same has been arbitrarily<\/p>\n
enhanced to Rs 66.40 P for which there is no explanation. His next<\/p>\n
contention is that on basis of rent of Rs 16.60 P, he was already charged<\/p>\n
penal rent which he paid at the rate of Rs 245\/-. Though this is rate which<\/p>\n
is chargeable to him and payable by him, he was charged Rs 465\/- per<\/p>\n
month which was also deducted from his salary. Thus, it is submitted on<\/p>\n
his behalf that penal rent having already been charged for the entire<\/p>\n
period, no further charge could be levied. In the counter affidavit, it is<\/p>\n
stated that subsequently order dated 01.09.2006 has been passed<\/p>\n
(Annexure-E) on basis whereof all the penal rent, petitioner had paid<\/p>\n
earlier, was adjusted against the demand and, as such, only Rs 66,709\/-<\/p>\n
was now recoverable and had to be recovered in 30 monthly instalments.<\/p>\n
              Having heard the parties and considering the matter, so far<\/p>\n
as paying penal rent is concerned, that cannot be accepted for the reason<\/p>\n
that, admittedly, petitioner was not posted at the station where<\/p>\n
accommodation was provided. Petitioner had sought accommodation at<\/p>\n
Araria when he was already transferred to Bhagalpur. Petitioner, thus,<\/p>\n
enjoyed the accommodation which he was not entitled to and, as such,<\/p>\n
was an unauthorised occupier. Thus, petitioner is liable to pay penal rent<\/p>\n
for the period of occupancy, as indicated in the impugned order passed.<\/p>\n
              The next question that arises what is the rent and the penal<\/p>\n
rent. In the revised order dated 01.09.2006 (Annexure-E to the counter<\/p>\n
affidavit), it is admitted that petitioner had, during the aforesaid period,
\n                        3<\/span><\/p>\n
paid penal rent at the rate of Rs 465\/- per month. Why the same has now<\/p>\n
stood revised to about Rs 996\/- per month remains unexplained in the<\/p>\n
counter affidavit. Learned counsel for the State submits that as petitioner<\/p>\n
was in occupation of the accommodation after retirement, it was market<\/p>\n
rent that was being charged. I am afraid, learned counsel for the petitioner<\/p>\n
is correct in pointing out that in the revised order dated 01.09.2006, it is<\/p>\n
stated that the rent was being charged for the period 01.05.1992 to<\/p>\n
31.08.2003 whereas the petitioner had superannuated on 31.07.2009 long<\/p>\n
thereafter.   Thus, no proper reason is forthcoming as to why this<\/p>\n
enhancement.\n<\/p>\n
               In such a situation, I have no option but to set aside the<\/p>\n
impugned order, as contained in Annexure-9 and Annexure-E and direct<\/p>\n
the petitioner to make a representation to the Executive Engineer,<\/p>\n
Irrigation Division, Bhagalpur who would reconsider the matter with<\/p>\n
regard to the rate at which penal rent was charged and payable. If it is<\/p>\n
found that penal rent had been paid then penal rent cannot be<\/p>\n
subsequently revised much less after petitioner had vacated the quarters<\/p>\n
unless it was for some justifiable reason wrongly charged. The petitioner<\/p>\n
would be entitled to make a detailed representation in this regard and after<\/p>\n
hearing the petitioner, the concerned Executive Engineer would dispose of<\/p>\n
the same by a speaking order duly communicated to the petitioner within<\/p>\n
one month of filing the representation.      It is only expected if, as a<\/p>\n
consequence of the aforesaid order, it is found that the deduction<\/p>\n
subsequently made pursuant to the impugned order was excess of the<\/p>\n
liability, the concerned Executive Engineer would ensure its refund to the
\n                                 4<\/span><\/p>\n
          petitioner within one month.\n<\/p>\n
                       With these observations and directions, the writ petition<\/p>\n
          stands disposed of.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
