HON’BLE MR JUSTICE MOHD YOUSUF WANI, JUDGE O R D E R 11.09.2025
1. Through the medium of the instant petition filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, the petitioner has sought issuance of directions/writs in the nature of mandamus for commanding the respondents, especially respondents 4 & 10, to continue the relief benefits in his favour and to incorporate his name in the registration list of 351 migrants already issued by the respondents vide communication No. RRCM/Regd/2025/CC-7658193/111-16 dated
02.07.2025. 2. The case of the petitioner, in nutshell, is that he is a disabled person and is hardly able to make his both ends meet. That his son was killed after being abducted in the year 1994, whereafter he himself received threats from miscreants, resulting in his migration along with his family members to Srinagar. That he was subsequently registered as a political Kashmiri Migrant under registration No. 39SPL, Zone, Srinagar, D Form No. 062902, Ration Card No. 2565. That the concerned Zonal Officer also issued a certificate in his favour, whereupon he continued to receive the ration/relief under the aforesaid ration card number. That unfortunately, a false and frivolous case came to be registered against him, which led to the filing of the chargesheet before the competent trial court, where he was acquitted at the conclusion of the trial. That he is aggrieved of by the action of the respondents in stopping the relief in his favour,
which has made his life miserable. That he has made innumerable representations before the respondents but they have turned deaf ear in the same. 3. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner, who reiterated his stand already taken in the writ petition. 4. In the facts and circumstances of the case, and having regard to the relief sought, this Court is of the opinion that, in the ends of justice, the instant writ petition is disposed of at this threshold stage by passing of appropriate directions, the action under which is otherwise required to be taken by the respondents as part of their official obligation.
Accordingly, the instant petition is taken up for disposal at this threshold stage and is accordingly disposed of with the direction to the respondents especially respondents 4 & 10 that they shall address the grievance of the petitioner regarding his inclusion in the migrant beneficiary list for the purpose of release of relief benefits in his favour. The respondents 4 & 10 shall make the necessary
consideration within a period of four weeks with a report of compliance to this Court.
5. Disposed of.
