PROCEEDING SHEET

| Heard<br>Sri<br>C.Sumon,<br>learned<br>Special | |||
| Government Pleader, Office of the Advocate General | |||
| and learned Government Pleader for Irrigation<br>and | |||
| Command Area Development. | |||
| The learned Special Government Pleader now | |||
| informs that steps are initiated by issuing necessary | |||
| orders today by the Principal Secretary, Irrigation and | |||
| Water<br>Resources<br>Department<br>(2nd<br>respondent)<br>to | |||
| carry out investigation in all the cases. By the order, | |||
| dated 05.10.2021,<br>the respondents<br>were directed<br>to | |||
| file counter affidavits with a rider that no further time | |||
| would be granted in default. | |||
| It was further directed that this Court would be | |||
| forced to pass an interim order in all the<br>pending | |||
| interlocutory applications directing the respondents | |||
| to meet the prayer sought therein. The Engineer-in | |||
| Chief was also directed by the same order to get a | |||
| statement prepared in respect of the instances where | |||
| processing the matters without any difficulty is seen | |||
| without any complaint and also the instances where | |||
| there is requirement of vigilance enquiry on account | |||
| of the nature of works carried out. | |||
| No such statement is forthcoming till now. Very | |||
| action of the 2nd respondent in initiating investigation | |||
| this day demonstrates the seriousness they have | |||
| attached to the order of this Court, dated 05.10.2021. | |||
| Pleader and the learned Government Pleader for | |||
| Irrigation and Command Area Development have tried | |||
| to<br>persuade this Court requesting time for filing | |||
| counter affidavits and not to pass interim orders. | |||
| Though their entreaties required consideration in all | |||
| Sri<br>C.Sumon,<br>learned<br>Special<br>Government |

| seriousness since the Court has to trust and believe | |||
| them, the same yardstick cannot be applied to the | |||
| respondents/public<br>servants<br>in<br>view<br>of<br>sheer | |||
| indifference demonstrated by them in respect of the | |||
| order, dated 05.10.2021. | |||
| Therefore,<br>the<br>following<br>interim<br>order.<br>The | |||
| respondents are directed to release and pay bills for | |||
| the amount claimed by the petitioner, within a period | |||
| of four (04) weeks from now. | |||
| W.P.No.19570 of 2021 | |||
| List this matter four (04) weeks later for filing | |||
| counter affidavits by the respondents. | |||
