Respondents
Writ Petition under Article 199 of the

Constitution of Islamic Republic of
Pakistan, 1973 read with all other
enabling provisions of law in this behalf.
Respectfully Sheweth: -
1. That the names and addresses of the parties have correctly been
given for the purpose of their summons and citations.
2. That the plot No. 15 was auctioned on 30.10.99 in response to the

advertisement in the Daily Khabrain, Multan dated 25.10.99. The
petitioner stood successful bidder in the open auction and
obtained the said plot measuring 10 acres at the rate of Rs.
2,850/- per acre. The petitioner deposited 50% of the bid money
(Rs. 14,125/-) on the said date. Copy of the Press clipping and
receipt are attached as Annexes “A & B”.
3. That the auction proceedings were approved by the competent

authority of the respondent department vide letter dated
13.3.2000, and the petitioner was asked to attend the office of the
respondent No. 5 to sign the agreement vide letter dated
3.4.2000. Copy of approval and letter are attached as Annex “C
& D”.
4. That the agreement was got executed in compliance of letter

dated 3.4.2000 and the petitioner deposited the remaining bid
money Rs. 14,125/- as directed by the respondent No. 5
resultantly the possession of the land (3/21-22, 4/16-17-24-25,

handed over to the petitioner on 6.5.2000. Copy of direction and
receipt are Annex “E & F”.

land and presently crop of Wheat on 7 acres and Barseen on 3
acres is standing at the site of the said plot No. 15, but the
respondent department is not going to allow the petitioner to bear
the ripen crop inspite of his repeated requests. The act and
conduct of the respondents is without jurisdiction, illegal, void,
ab-initio, against the terms and conditions of the auction and
ineffective qua the rights of the petitioner. The omissions and
commissions on the part of the respondents can safely be termed
as colourful exercise of their jurisdiction and on the other hand, it
is personal as well as national loss, if the crop is not borne within
a couple of days.
6. That the petitioner has been left with no alternate, efficacious,

adequate and speedy remedy available except to invoke the writ
jurisdiction of this Hon’ble Court for the redressal of his
grievance.

graciously be issued restraining the respondents from
depriving the petitioner from bearing the ripen crop
pending on 7 acres of land of plot No. 15.

this Hon’ble Court deems fit, may please be extended in
the favour of petitioners to meet the ends of justice.

Respondents
Writ Petition under Article 199 of the

Constitution of Islamic Republic of
Pakistan, 1973 read with all other
enabling provisions of law in this behalf.
1. That the names and addresses of the parties have correctly
been given for the purpose of their summons and citations.
2. That through advertisement dated 23.3.95 published in the

daily “Nawa-e-Waqt” the plots of Railway land situated at
Chenab East and West Bank were proposed to be auctioned
for cultivation purposes through an open auction for 3 years in
favour of the successful bidders after depositing 50% amount
of bid money at site. It was also required from the participants
of the auction proceedings to deposit Rs. 2,000/- before the
proceedings of auction with the clarification that the amount
deposited be returned to unsuccessful bidders and the amount
deposited by the successful bidders will be adjusted in 50%
amount of bid money. Copy of the advertisement is attached
as Annex “A”.
3. That the petitioner remained successful bidder in the auction

proceeding held on 30.3.1995 in respect of plot No. 8
consisting of 10 acres at the rate of Rs. 660/- per acre and has
deposited 50% of bid money in favour of the respondents.
Copy of the auction proceeding along-with sketch of the plot
auctioned in favour of the petitioner and copy of receipt for
depositing the amount are attached as Annexes “B, C & D”
respectively.
4. That the respondent department, on one pretext or the other,

for the reasons best known to them, remained reluctant for a
period of 5 years to accord the approval of the auction and
handing over the possession of the plot to the petitioner,
inspite of being successful bidder. Resultantly, the petitioner
was constrained to submit an application for the return of 50%
of bid amount deposited on first instance in the year 1996. It is
pertinent to mention here that this exercise was repeated in the
year 1997, 1998 by the petitioner as evident from the
applications submitted to the respondent. Inspite of
recommendation of Assistant Engineer, Multan, to the effect
that he was pleased to report that since the Railway land was
occupied by the Forest Department and was not available and
has not been occupied by the successful bidder, it was
therefore, recommended that 50% money deposited my please
be refunded vide letter No. 13-G, dated .6.1997, even then
amount was not refunded to the petitioner. However, it was
decided by the department somewhere in the month of March,
1999 to refund the 50% money deposited by the petitioner, but
this too was not progressed. Copies of the application and
letter of A.E. are attached as Annex “E, F, G & H”.
5. That the respondent department opted a device in the year

2000 and asked the petitioner to negotiate on the subject
instead of claiming the return of 50% bid money to have the
same plot, by raising the rate from Rs. 660/- per acre to Rs.
1,000/- per acre. It is pertinent to mention here that the land is
situated in the bed of the river Chenab and is always subjected
to climatic position and having no value at all, but to assure
the already deposited amount, the petitioner agreed to the new
rate offered by the department during the negotiations i.e. Rs.
1,000/- per acre. Resultantly, after having executed an
affidavit in favour of the department in respect of the new rate
on 8.9.1999, the respondents were kind enough to accord the
approval of the auction on 10.4.2000 at the rate of Rs. 1,000/-
per acre, whereupon the petitioner was directed to deposit the
balance amount of Rs. 6,700/- as 50% of bid money on
15.5.2000. Copies of affidavit, approval, letter for depositing
Rs. 6,700/- and deposit receipt are attached as Annexes “J, K,
L & M” respectively.
6. That inspite of depositing total bid money i.e. Rs. 10,000/-

and giving in writing the actual possession of the land was not
handed over to the petitioner for cultivation purpose.
However, the petitioner was allowed to sow the wheat crop.
The copy of the same is attached as Annex “N”. And the
7. That the petitioner after making investment cultivated the

wheat crop. It was the misfortune of the petitioner when the
crop was ripe to be harvested the respondent department came
forward with a colourful attitude and deprived of the
petitioner from harvesting the standing crops in the field
without any cogent reason. The petitioner tried his level’s best
to settle the issue with the respondent department, but all in
vain, as the respondents have opted an illegible, irrational and
illegal ways to deprive the petitioner from the benefits of
auctioned land.
9. That the wheat crop is standing, which is going to be perished

if not borne, within a couple of days. It will not only be a loss
of the petitioner alone, but shall be a national loss. The
omissions and commissions committed by the respondents can
safely be termed as colourful exercise of their jurisdiction.
10. That the petitioner has been left with no alternate, efficacious,
adequate and speedy remedy available except to invoke the
extra-ordinary constitutional jurisdiction of this Hon’ble Court
for his grievance.
Keeping in view the above-mentioned facts, it is

respectfully prayed that an appropriate writ may
graciously be issued restraining the respondents from
depriving the petitioner from bearing the ripen crop
pending on 10 acres of land of plot No. 8.
Any other writ, order, direction or relief which

this Hon’ble Court deems fit, may please be extended in
the favour of petitioners to meet the ends of justice.
