ABDUL JALIL Vs. STATE OF U.P.

JUDGEMENT

(1.) Present writ petition has been filed praying for the following reliefs:­

(2.) The petitioner claiming himself to be a resident of Village Ambehata Peer, District Saharanpur and a sugarcane farmer having his agricultural land in Village Manakpur, has filed the present writ petition, principally seeking to raise a grievance with regard to the attachment of his cane area to Cane Purchase Centre at Chaparchidi. In this regard the petitioner claims to have submitted a representation dated 05.11.2019 before the District Sugarcane Officer, Saharanpur. He also seeks to challenge the order dated 12.04.2019 passed by the Deputy Cane Commissioner, Saharanpur whereunder an earlier representation filed by the petitioner and certain other cane growers of the area with regard to the same grievance has been decided.

(3.) Contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that the cane growers of Village Manakpur have been supplying their sugarcane in previous years at the Cane Purchase Centre Islam Nagar bearing Center Code No.4/Islam Nagar ­III and only during the crushing season 2018­19 they have been shifted to the Cane Purchase Centre No.3/Chaparchidi, District Saharanpur. It is submitted that the Cane Purchase Centre at Chaparchidi is at a much greater distance than the Cane Purchase Centre, Islam Nagar causing inconvenience to the cane growers of Village Manakpur. Placing reliance on Clause 5(5) of the U.P. Sugarcane Supply and Purchase Order, 1954, it is sought to be contended that the dispute as to whether a particular system adopted for the purchase of cane is equitable or not is to be referred to the Cane Commissioner and accordingly the representation dated 05.11.2019 submitted by the petitioner may be decided in terms thereof.
