[2026:RJ-JP:11077] (2 of 2) [CW-4332/2026] Learned counsel appearing for the respondents submits that the respondents have no objection in case the petitioner raises objection as regards the impugned demand and they will also consider and decide the objections if submitted by the petitioner by a reasoned and speaking order. In view of the limited prayer made by counsel for the petitioner and taking into consideration the facts of the case, this Court feels that ends of justice would meet if the petitioner is allowed to make objection/representation to the respondents as regards the impugned demand. Accordingly, the present writ petition is disposed of with a liberty to the petitioner to submit the objection/representation to the respondents as regards the impugned demand within a period of 7 days from today. In case the respondents receive any objection/representation as regards the impugned demand within the given time, they shall consider and decide the same by a reasoned and speaking order within a period of 21 days thereafter. Till the respondents decide the objection/representation, if submitted by the petitioner, the respondents shall not take any coercive action against the petitioner.
