1. Heard learned counsel for the parties.
2. In terms of the order passed by this Court on 15.04.2025, learned Standing Counsel has produced the instructions, which are taken on record.
3. In terms of the said instructions, a letter has been written to the Additional Chief Secretary, Agriculture for the release of the subsidy amount, which was payable in the account of the petitioner in terms of the loan waiver scheme of the year 2007. It is stated that the decision has yet to be taken by the Additional Secretary, Agriculture and an assurance has been given that the decision shall be taken expeditiously.
4. Learned counsel for the petitioner draws my attention to the judgement dated 05.03.2024 passed by this Court in Writ-C No.6336 of 2022, wherein this Court had specifically directed that amount of Rs.1 lac, which is said to be due by the Bank from the petitioner shall not be realized on account of the loan waiver scheme and the respondent-Bank shall make necessary efforts to receive the said money from the State Government.
5. A stand has been taken by the Bank that a communication was addressed to the Director Agricultural Statistics and Crop Insurance. However, no amounts were received. Irrespective of the said communication, in terms of the judgement passed by this Court on 05.03.2024, the recovery of the amount of Rs.1
lac was in between the respondent-Bank and the State Government.
6. In view of the said instructions, the present petition is
disposed of holding that no amount of Rs.1 lac or any interest thereupon shall be recovered by the respondent-Bank from the petitioner. The Additional Chief Secretary, Agriculture shall ensure that the amounts as requested in the letters dated 07.02.2024 and 28.02.2024 are decided and paid within a period of six weeks from today. The said amount shall be remitted to the respondent-Bank.
7. It is further reiterated that no amount towards the amount of Rs.1 lac or any interest thereupon shall be charged by the respondent-Bank from the petitioner. As regards the amount other than the amount of Rs.1 lac or the interest accrued thereupon, the respondent-Bank shall issue fresh statement of the account of the petitioner, which the petitioner undertakes to pay within a period of six weeks.
