Jammu: Justice Tashi Rabstan of Jammu Kashmir High Court (Jammu Wing) impleaded Chief Executive Officer, Economic Reconstruction Agency (ERA) as a party respondent in the much publicized writ petition seeking demolition /removal of encroachments allegedly made by Raman Bhalla Former Revenue Minister J&K and others on the Nallah at Satyam Resorts, Marble Market, Village Deeli, Jammu.
After hearing Advocate Sheikh Shakeel Ahmed appearing for the petitioner Prof. S.K. Bhalla, Justice Tashi Rabstan in the open court impleaded CEO, ERA as party respondent and issued notice to him and directed the CEO ERA to file the status report with regard to alleged encroachment as highlighted in the petition within one week and further directed the Registry to list this petition immediately after ensuing winter vacations.
When this petition came up for hearing, Advocate S.S. Ahmed drew the attention of the court to the status report and reply filed by JMC and UEED. Advocate Ahmed submitted that both UEED and JMC have suppressed vital facts and have tried to shield the Former Revenue Minister Raman Bhalla by falsely contending that no encroachment has been made by the Former Revenue Minister. He further submitted that both JMC and UEED have shifted the buck to ERA by stating that the Nallah in question has been taken over by ERA and if any action is warranted the same has to be taken by the ERA only.
