Uma Shankar Vs. Union of India (Uoi)

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-20-2002

Reported in: (2002)3UPLBEC2169

M. Katju and Rakesh Tiwari, JJ. 1. Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and Sri Govind Saran, learned Counsel for the respondent. The petitioner is challenging the impugned order of the Central Government dated 2nd February, 2001. The Tribunal has dismissed the O.A. on the ground of limitation prescribed under Section 21 of the Administrative Tribunal Act. The learned Counsel for the petitioner submitted that once a petition has been admitted by the Central Administrative Tribunal it cannot be dismissed on the ground of limitation. This argument is not correct. It is the duty of a Court to dismiss a petition on the ground of limitation unless the delay has been condoned. Hence, unless an application has been filed for condonation of delay under Section 21(3) of the Administrative Tribunal and such application is allowed, the Tribunal has to dismiss the petition on the ground of limitation even if it had earlier admitted the petition. Merely because the Tribunal has admitted a petit...

Balram Prasad Vs. State of U.P. and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-19-2002

Reported in: 2002(2)AWC1246; (2002)2UPLBEC1008

M. Katju and Rakesh Tiwari, JJ. 1. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned standing counsel. The petitioner took a loan from the State Bank of India under the Prime Minister Rozgar Yojana in respect of which the impugned recovery has been issued.2. In our opinion, writ petitions relating to recovery of loans should not ordinarily be entertained by the High Court and instead, the party should approach the civil court in a civil suit challenging the said recovery because such matters usually involve questions of fact for which this Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India is not the appropriate forum. We may clarify that in such a civil suit challenging the recovery, a temporary injunction can also be granted. The Amendment to Order XXXIX, Rule 2, C.P.C., by which a proviso has been inserted in U. P. State in Clause (g) that the Court cannot stay proceedings for the recovery of any dues recoverable as land revenue 'unless adequate security is furnished'. This mea...

Shakumbari Sugar and Allied Industries Ltd. Vs. Union of India (Uoi) a ...

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-19-2002

Reported in: 2002(2)AWC1250

M. Katju and Rakesh Tiwari, JJ. 1. Learned standing counsel may file counter-affidavit within three weeks, List thereafter.2. The petitioner has a sugar factory at Saharanpur.The petitioner has challenged the restrictions on free sale sugar. In our prima facie opinion, these restrictions are arbitrary and violative of Articles 14 and 19(1)(g) of the Constitution. In this connection, we may explain the general scheme regarding sale of sugar. The sugar produced by sugar factories is generally divided into two categories-levy sugar and free sale sugar. The levy sugar has to be compulsorily sold by the manufacturer to the Government or to the nominee of the Government at the price fixed by the Government. Such sugar is then distributed to the poor people of the country through the public distribution system (Fair Price Shops etc.). The idea is that the poor people could get sugar at a cheap price. However, this often entails a loss to the manufacturer because the levy sugar is sold to the ...
