Sr. No.16 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JAMMU & KASHMIR AND LADAKH AT JAMMU (THROUGH VIRTUAL MODE) LPA/248/2024 IN [WP(C)/160/2024] CM/7001/2024 CM/7000/2024 DISTRICT DEVELOPMENT COMMISSIONER POONCH AND ANOTHER …Petitioner(s)/appellant(s) Through: Ms. Monika Kohli, Sr. AAG Vs. INHABITANTS OF VILLAGE DHARANA AND TOPA SALWA TH NAZIR HUSSAIN AND ANOTHER ...Respondent(s) Through: Mr. Mohsin Butt, Advocate CORAM: HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJNESH OSWAL, JUDGE O R D E R 08-07-2025 Respondent Nos. 2 and 4 in WP(C) No.160/2024 are in appeal against an order dated 02.02.2024 whereby the Writ Court while issuing notice to the respondents though restrained the authorities to issue the final order of allotment but they were granted liberty to proceed with the tendering process pursuant to the impugned e-NITs. Ex facie, year and a half has gone by since the impugned order dated 02.02.2024 was passed. Ms. Monika Kohli, learned Senior AAG informs us that the respondents have already submitted their statement of facts/objections. But even though vide order dated 02.02.2024 (ibid) the matter was posted for March 6, 2024, the same has not been listed so far. She submits that the matter is time sensitive and owing to the pendency of the writ petition and the order that is being assailed, the rights/interests of the respondent authorities are severely impaired. Shameem Hamid Mir 2025.07.09 10:42 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document We had heard the learned counsel for the parties at some length, when during the course of hearing they have reached a consensus that let the appeal be disposed of with the direction to the Writ Court to dispose of the matter within a specified time. That being so, we are not required to delve any further into the merits. Accordingly, the Registry is directed to list the matter before the learned Single Judge on 18.07.2025 as per roster. We are sanguine that considering the issue that requires determination by the Writ Court as also the right/interest of all the stakeholders to the lis, the learned Single Judge would make every possible endeavor to decide the petition at the earliest. The appeal is accordingly disposed of in the above terms. CM/7000/2024 In the wake of the order of even date vide which the appeal itself has been disposed of, learned counsel for the parties are ad idem that no formal order is required to be passed and the same be disposed of in the same terms. Ordered accordingly. (RAJNESH OSWAL) (ARUN PALLI) JUDGE CHIEF JUSTICE SRINAGAR 08-07-2025 Shameem H. Shameem Hamid Mir 2025.07.09 10:42 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document
