The learned Single Judge has refused to exercise his jurisdiction in matter of payment of so called arrears of rent for godowns which purportedly had been hired by the Corporation for storage purposes.

Patna High Court LPA No.2148 of 2015 dt.09-03-2017 2/2 The learned Single Judge took note of the fact that there was no agreement which was produced before the Court. There was dispute with regard to hire and the number of godowns which were hired and for the rent or the rate on which such payment was required to be made, was a matter which was adjudicated by the House Controller. If in this jumble of facts the learned Single Judge has refused to exercise his jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, he did no wrong. The appellant is not remediless.

The appeal has no merit. It is dismissed.
