ORDER

Date : 22.01.2026 None appears for the petitioner on call.

Ms. M. Barman, learned State Counsel; Mr. N. R. Sarma, learned Standing Counsel, BTC; and Ms. N. Bordoloi, learned Standing Counsel, Revenue Department, are present.

The claim of the petitioner is for payment of enhanced ex gratia amount of Rs. 5,00,000/- (Rupees five lakhs) only pursuant to the Notifications dated 15.11.2014 & 06.12.2014 on account of the death of his mother, who reportedly was killed by the Bodo Extremists on 22.12.1993 at Udalguri weekly market.

The petitioner, being the next of kin of the deceased, has been granted ex gratia of Rs. 1,00,000/- (Rupees one lakh) only and Rs. 2,00,000/- (Rupees two lakhs) only, making a total amount of Rs. 3,00,000/- (Rupees three lakhs) only under the Notification/Policy existed during the relevant period. Since the petitioner has already been paid ex gratia amount of Rs. 3,00,000/- under the Policy/Notification in vogue then, prima facie, the petitioner would not be entitled to any further amount, particularly under the Notification of the State which has been came into force subsequently.

Upon consideration, it appears that the petitioner has realized that he may not be entitled to any relief and therefore appears to be not interested to pursue this writ petition.

Accordingly, writ petition stands dismissed for non-prosecution.
