Amit Talukdar, J.1. Questions that have fallen for consideration in these appeals have strictly been taken care of the statute itself. That is how those are to be disposed.2. At the Bar it has been submitted that as the amount of the HEROIN (Mat. Exts.

Further it has been canvassed that the evidence on record does not fulfill the ingredient of the charge of section 27A of the said Act as there is no material either with regard to harbouring of any offender or financing any business in respect of narcotic drugs.3.

Amitava Lala, J.1. This writ petition is arising out of a very important question whether BIFR Scheme under the Sick Industrial Companies (Special Provisions)Act, 1985 will have overriding effect over the Employees' State Insurance Act; 1948 or not. The line of argument of Mr. Partha Sarathi Sengupta, learned Sr. Counsel appearing for the petitioner is that there are four points to consider 358 Howrah Mills Co. Ltd. vs. Employees' State InsuranceCorpn. 2004(4)CHN the same. Firstly, whether 'special' will prevail over the 'general' or not. Whether the latter Act will prevail over the earlier Act or not. Whether the Sick Industrial Companies (Special Provisions) Act, 1985 provides any non-obstante clause over and above the Employees' State Insurance Act, 1948 or not. Whether the Sick Industrial Companies (Special Provisions) Act, 1985 is special to the special Act, i.e., the Employees' State Insurance Act, 1948 or not.2. At the threshold, I find that a claim of the Employees' State Insur...

Amitava Lala, J.1. A short point is involved in this writ petition. The point is that even after recovery of the amount by the respondent No. 3-applicant/employee as per the terms and conditions of the contract for voluntary retirement, can he restrain the company's quarter beyond the period of two years without leave as a special case on payment of normal rent or not. The need of such retention of the company's quarters is not reflected from any of such documents particularly in view of the fact that the petitioner is admittedly residing at a different place at 26, Padmapukur Road, P.
