p. 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF ORISSA AT CUTTACK W.P.(C) No. 37852 of 2025 Debaraj Rath …. Petitioner Represented by Mr.G. M. Rath, Advocate -Versus – State of Odisha and Others …. Opp. Parties Represented by Ms. J. Sahoo, ASC CORAM: JUSTICE SASHIKANTA MISHRA ORDER_ 22.01.2026 1. This matter is taken up through hybrid mode. 2. By order dated 21.08.2014, the petitioner was asked to pay Rs.9,29,752/- towards differential land premium and Rs.21,52,204/- towards ID cost. 3. Initially, he contested the said letter and approached this Court in W.P.(C) No.22858 of 2015. Said writ petition was disposed of by a division Bench granting liberty to the petitioner to approach the government for appropriate relief. 4. The petitioner’s grievance is that, despite his willingness to pay the amount as claimed, the same is not being accepted. No order refusing acceptance of the amount proposed to be paid by the petitioner is on record. The writ petition is disposed of directing the petitioner to submit a representation as directed by the division Bench, before the opposite party No.3 indicating his willingness to Order No. 2. p. 2 pay the amount in question. If the petitioner pays the amount, the same shall be accepted without prejudice to the rival claims. (Sashikanta Mishra) Judge BC Tudu
