THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE VENKATESWARLU NIMMAGADDA
WRIT PETITION NO.10563 OF 2022
ORDER:
-
Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Government Pleader for the respondents.
-
When the matter is taken up for hearing, learned Government Pleader for Finance and Planning, on oral instructions submitted that respondent authorities paid the total due amount claimed by the petitioner.
-
On the other hand, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the respondents paid the principal amount, but not paid the interest as claimed by the petitioner.
-
In view of the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Government Pleader that the principal amount was already paid as claimed by the petitioner and also the contention of the learned Government Pleader that the further claim of interest for delayed payment can be agitated by way of initiation of separate/fresh legal proceedings is also valid and sustainable.
-
In view of the facts and circumstances and for the reasons stated above, the present Writ Petition is infructuous, granting liberty to the petitioner to claim differential amount/withheld amount or interest amount, if any, by way of initiation of fresh/separate legal proceedings in accordance with law. No costs.
Consequently, miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending shall stand closed.
