Versus
Punjab State Agricultural Marketing Board, Chandigarh and others Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AJAY TEWARI HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AVNEESH JHINGAN
Present:
Mr. Akshay Bhan, Senior Advocate with Mr. Alok Mittal, Advocate for the petitioner(s).
Mr. J.S. Ahluwalia, Advocate for the respondents.
**** AJAY TEWARI, J (Oral):
[1] These two writ petitions have been filed against demand notice issued by the respondents on the primary ground that no assessment was made before issuance of the notice. PANKAJ BAWEJA 2020.02.04 15:50 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document High Ciourt, Chandigarh
CWP No.7055 of 2006 CWP No.7061 of 2006 -2- [2] During the pendency of the writ petitions, now assessment orders have been passed and consequently it is the case of the respondents that present writ petitions be dismissed since there is alternative remedy of appeal.
[3] Learned Senior Advocate appearing on behalf of the petitioner(s) has argued that he would have no objection to file an appeal but argument of learned counsel for the respondent has to be taken with a pinch of salt that if now the appeal is filed, the respondents are likely to dismiss it on the ground of limitation. [4] Learned counsel for the respondents has very fairly stated that in case the petitioner(s) file the appeal (in both the petitions), within a period of one month from today, against assessment orders, the same would be decided on merits without going into the question of limitation.
[5] The writ petitions are disposed of in above terms. The interim order shall remain operative during this period of one month. [6] Since the writ petitions are disposed of, the pending application(s) if any, stands disposed of.
