JUDGEMENT
Susanta Chatterjee, J. -
(1.) While the present writ petition was entertained on June 11, 1992 this Court granted leave to the respondents No. 2 & 4 to file affidavit-in-opposition although it was submitted by Mr. Shiv Saroop appearing for Respondent No. 2 & 4 that in-spite of recommendations, Central Investment subsidy has not been released by the Respondent No. 1, Union of India as impleaded through Secretary, Ministry or Industries, Department of industrial Development Udyog Bhawan, New Delhi. Subsequent directions were given to serve upon respondent No. 11 and Respondent No. 4 Director of Industries A & N Admn. Subsequently the matter appeared be-1 fore the next Circuit Bench on 17-8-1992. Mr. Shiv Saroop undertook to appear on behalf of respondent No. 1 to 4 and he prayed for six weeks time to file the affidavit-in opposition. The matter appeared again before the next circuit bench on 16-11-1992 and further leave was granted to file the Affidavit-in-opposition. The case appeared on 12-1-1993 and it was placed or record that affidavit-in-opposition will be filed by 18-1-1993. Mr. Shiv Saroop submits that although he had undertaken to appear on behalf of Respondent No. 1 & 4 also, he has not received any communication from Respondent No. 1 as yet. The grievance of the petitioner is that there is with-holding of central investment subsidy in-spite of the recommendations of the respondent No. 2 & 4. Since no affidavit-in-opposition has been filed nor any instructions has been obtained by Mr Shiv Saroop from respondent No. 1 and since no records are available it will not be possible for this court to dispose of this matter effectively by adjudicating the matter in dispute. For the foregoing reasons this case is adjourned for two months. But the secretary, Ministry of Industries, Department of Industrial Development, Udyog Bhawan, New Delhi is directed to consider the case of the petitioner as to why there will be no release of the central investment subsidy in favour of the petitioner as per recommendations of Respondent No. 2 & 4 within a period of four weeks from the date of Communication of this order and will file a report of compliance of this Court's order within Wo week's thereafter. A plain copy of this order is given to Shri R. Saroop to communicate this order to the aforesaid authority for necessary compliance.
(2.) Let a plain copy of this order be given to the petitioner upon usual undertaking that he will apply for certified copy of the judgment.
