Reported in: 1998(1)AWC699; [1998(79)FLR241]

D.K. Seth, J.1. The petitioner was posted in the Civil Police Force of the Police Department. According to Mr. Yogesh Agrawal the petitioner being a Sub-Inspector of Police has been sought to be transferred from one Branch of the Police Department to another Branch of the Police Department which is contrary to Regulation 525 of the Police Regulations as it requires sanction of the Inspector General of Police on transfer of police personnel from one branch to another branch of the Police Department in the cases of persons other than constables. According to him, in the present case, no such sanction has been given by the Inspector General of Police. The order of transfer was issued by the Deputy Inspector General of Police (Administration). According to him, therefore, the order of transfer is void ob initio.2. Learned standing counsel, on the other hand, relies on the statement made in paragraph 10 of the counter-affidavit that the question of sanction does not arise in the present cas...

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Aug-08-1997

Reported in: [2003]133STC139(All)

1. Heard Sri Ashok Kumar, counsel for the petitioners, and the learned Standing Counsel.2. The short question for consideration in this writ petition is whether the petitioner is entitled to interest on belated payment(s).3. The contention of the petitioner is that it became entitled to refund of Rs. 14,195 as a result of the order dated February 27, 1993, passed by the Trade Tax Tribunal. Thereafter, an order to refund the amount came to be passed on February 7, 1996. Pursuant to that order, a refund voucher was prepared on March 14, 1996, which was issued by the respondent on June 15, 1996. As a voucher is valid only for a period of 60 days under Rule 99 of the U.P. Trade Tax Rules, the voucher dated March 14, 1996, was dishonoured by the bank, as that was presented much beyond the period of validity. The respondent then prepared another voucher on August 29, 1996, which is said to have been despatched on November 13, 1996, and that, according to the petitioner, was received on Novem...
