(3.) A bare perusal of order Annex.10 dated 14.08.2012 shows that such FDR No.709254 dated 20.03.2010 of Rs.2,75,000.00 and FDR No.710315 dated 03.03.2010 of Rs.1,14,000.00, total Rs.3,89,000.00 have already been adjusted by the respondent-Mining Department but learned counsel for the petitioner submits, that there were more FDR(s) for such security lying with the respondent Mining Department, however, they have not been adjusted and the respondent- Mining Department is insisting upon the payment in cash of such difference amount. There is no dispute on the fact that difference amount of contracted sum is due to be paid by the petitioner since as per the terms of the contract increased amount was payable upon increase in the rate of royalty.
