Neutral Citation No. - 2025:AHC:18943-DB Court No. - 29 Case :- WRIT - C No. - 3731 of 2025 Petitioner :- Shanti Devi Respondent :- The State Of U.P. And 2 Others Counsel for Petitioner :- Kamta Prasad,Shivendra Nath Singh Counsel for Respondent :- C.S.C. Hon'ble Ashwani Kumar Mishra,J. Hon'ble Arun Kumar Singh Deshwal,J. Petitioner's claim for compensation under the Mukhyamantri Krishak Durghatna Kalyan Yojana has been rejected only on the ground that there is a delay of 82 days in filing of the claim, which is beyond the maximum period permissible in law. The order of District Magistrate is challenged on the ground that a subsequent government order has been issued which extends the period of limitation to 180 days for the claims submitted between 2020 to 2023. It is, therefore, submitted that in view of the subsequent government order, the claim of the petitioner is liable to be examined, afresh. Learned Standing Counsel states that such claim of the petitioner would be examined by the competent authority, in accordance with law. In the facts of the case, this writ petition stands disposed of permitting the petitioner to represent her claim before the respondent no. 2, by annexing all materials in support of her claim, together with a certified copy of this order. The concerned authority shall accord consideration to the petitioner's claim on merits for payment of compensation, in terms of the aforesaid scheme, by means of a reasoned order within a period of three months, from the date of presentation of a certified copy of this order. It is made clear that consideration of petitioner's claim shall be independently made without being influenced by rejection of her earlier claim vide order dated 30.7.2021.
