And In the matter of : Abdus Sattar ……Petitioner. Mr. Sk. Saifuddin ……for the Petitioner. Mr. Aniket Mitra ….for the WBSEDCL. Ms. Hasi Saha Mr. Ranjit Singh ….for the State. Supplementary affidavit filed by the petitioner be kept with the record. Records reflect that the petitioner has paid a sum of 50 per cent of the final assessment raised by WBSEDCL.
